Grace Marriage - last Sunday of every month, 6:00 PM - 7:30 PM
This series is a once a month, 90-minute session, designed to enrich, protect, and grow your marriage. Quite simply, it is a Biblically-based marriage maintenance model that can revolutionize your relationship. It is not marriage counseling, group therapy, or a place where you will share your deepest secrets. This is a program designed to enrich marriage, at every step, from newlyweds to empty nesters. Books and childcare are included.

Worldwide Marriage Encounter

The Worldwide Marriage Encounter experience is primarily a space for you to pause, reflect, and reconnect privately. The experience allows you to create a dialogue with each other and with God, to create a higher and broader understanding of what it means to be married. While faith is a powerful part of this process, the focus of the Marriage Encounter experience is on the ups and downs of married life. Married couples of any denomination, mixed-faith, or without religious affiliation are welcome!
Retrouvaille Marriage Help Program for Struggling Couples
Minneapolis Program Dates are August 4-6, October 6-8, December 1-3, February 2-4, April 5-7
The Retrouvaille Program is for Married Couples Facing Difficult Challenges in their Relationship. This program helps couples restore their marriage and rebuild a loving relationship. It is a Christian marriage program, Catholic in origin, where couples of all faiths or no faith background are encouraged to attend. Primarily a practical program to improve communication, build stronger marriages, and help couples reconnect, the presenters are not trained marriage counselors, but rather couples sharing their personal stories of marital struggles and the tools they used to rediscover their love.
Adventures in Marriage
Headquarted in Florida, check back for local dates.
Adventures in Marriage is a highly interactive program that teaches couples the practical “hands on” skills essential to build a healthy, thriving marriage that can go the distance. AIM helps couples discover better ways to meet one another’s needs, communicate, resolve conflicts, express anger, avoid dirty fighting, and understand how their personality styles impact relationships for better or worse. Fun, practical, and easy to learn, Adventures in Marriage is appropriate for couples at any age or stage. AIM is designed to reach couples across the spectrum – it helps couples with good marriages discover how to have a great marriage, and it helps distressed marriages reboot and learn a much better way.
