Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her. . . . However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband. Ephesians 5:25 & 33

During the four to six sessions, details of the marriage service, personal relationships, home, church, and community will be discussed. Each session lasts 1.5 to 2 hours. The Pastor may choose to lead group sessions with multiple couples. The basis for the discussion will be your responses to a relationship assessment tool called “Prepare & Enrich” that is administered online. You will be notified by email when you can take the assessment, which takes 30-45 minutes.
