Marriage course

What is the marriage course?

The course is very practical, giving any married couple the tools to build a strong and healthy marriage that lasts a lifetime.

Over eight evenings spent together couples talk about important issues that can get swept under the carpet in the rush of daily life

Topics covered include:

  • recognising each other’s needs,
  • learning to communicate effectively,
  • resolving conflict,
  • healing past hurt,
  • knowing how to make each other feel loved,
  • relating to parents and in-laws,
  • good sex,
  • making time for each other and
  • having fun together.

Privacy as a couple is always respected. There is no group discussion and no requirement to disclose anything about your relationship to anyone else.

What is involved?

Each evening begins with coffee/tea and muffins/buns in a candlelit atmosphere. There is then a talk followed by an opportunity to discuss the topic together as a couple.

The setting is welcoming, relaxed and unthreatening.

Who is it for?

The course is for any married couple that want to build a strong and lasting relationship, especially:

  • Those who want to enhance their marriage
  • Those in the first five years of marriage
  • Those at a challenging stage in their marriage e.g. the birth of a child, a career change, teenagers at home, the empty nest.
  • Those struggling with issues in their marriage
