Marriage
Education Classes
If your dream is
to become a doctor, then you begin by gaining the basic skills and knowledge of medicine. Even after you achieve
your dream of becoming a doctor you still need to continue to take additional classes in order to be successful.
The same is true
in marriage. If your dream is to have a happy healthy, lifelong marriage, then you can significantly increase your
chances of making it happen by taking additional classes that will teach additional important relationship skills
and knowledge.
The classes below
teach relationship skills and knowledge to help couples form and sustain healthy marriages. They are appropriate
for the following groups of couples:
Engaged couples
Newly married couples
Couples who are happily married
Couples who are not happily married.
For specific courses
in "Marriage Preparation", see the "Engaged Couples" section of this web site. In addition to these courses, you will
find other "class-like" events in some of the other sections of this web site.
Please contact the
person indicated to find out more information about the course and to sign up. We suggest you do this well
in advance since some courses fill up before the scheduled start date.
