Marriage is an opportunity for us to extend grace and gratitude to one another.

Each event affords your marriage the intimate conversation needed in order to set goals and prioritize your marriage for the next 90 days. Each session takes place from 8a-2p, with breakfast and lunch provided. Childcare is not available.
Registration is now closed.
