Marriage Enrichment 
 
This 8 week programme will give you all the necessary tools to build a healthy marriage that lasts a lifetime.  The course is based on the best selling book by Nicky and Sila Lee.
 
If you already have a strong marriage this course will help you strengthen it. If your marriage is in difficulty, it will show you how to work through things. Separated couples have even attended to get back together.
 

Each week you will enjoy a meal together and listen to a talk, followed by a discussion between just the two of you. There is no group work involved at any stage of this course, just the chance to have quality conversations between the pair of you.

 

Married or not, church-goers or not, couples of all backgrounds find the course equally appropriate and fun.

 
We look at:

 
  • Building Strong Foundations
  •  
    The Art of Communication
  • Resolving Conflict
  • The Power of Forgiveness
  • Parents and In-Laws
  • Good Sex
  • Love in Action
  • The Marriage Course Party
  • What makes a Marriage Work?

 
Why do the course?

 

Regular check-ups help a car run smoothly and reduce the risk of breakdown.

 

The best sports professionals spend hours being coached and perfecting their technique.

 

The greatest achievements in life take practice, training and dedication. It is the same with marriage.

 

A strong, loving and lifelong relationship doesn’t happen by chance. It takes effort and dedication to keep the fun and romance alive. We can all learn how to make even the happiest marriage better.

 

As one husband commented: “I booked on an 8 week Marriage Course, but ended up having 8 dates with my wife.”

 

Psychologists tell us it takes 8 weeks to form a new habit; the Marriage Course gives you a unique opportunity to develop the habits that will take your relationship from good to great.
