Needed: Dating, Engaged, Marriage and Parent Coaches
You can serve as relationship and parent coaches. We have many couples who desire to meet with a couple who love each other and are committed to marriage. We also have parents who desire to meet with a more seasoned parent.
We can train you to meet with couples in order to share the grace that God has placed in your relationship and family. Also, if you enjoy sharing your faith, there are unchurched couples who want to meet with a couple who are committed to each other.
If you are interested in becoming a Marriage & Family Coach, please contact Rebekah Mongeau for an application and more info about our upcoming trainings.

Journey to Oneness

In American culture marriage is ususally considered a strictly private matter. But the model of a healthy, Christ centered marriage is a much needed resource to our community. If you would like to learn more about putting Christ at the center of your marriage consider coming to this class. Journey to Oneness introduces couples to the concept achieving harmony, chemistry and synergy in their relationship by sharing with one another the values taught in the class. These shared values will allow couples to overcome obstacles that could otherwise impede their dreams. By attending this class, you will be eligible to participate in Begin Again, Crisis Marriage Restoration Plan or be coached by a married couple. This class will encourage and equip you to honor God in your marriage.
