Come join us for a time of fellowship, discipleship, and growth as we seek to glorify God through marriage!
Our theme this year is Abide Together! Couples will step into the life-giving joy of abiding in Christ together—learning to draw one another closer to Him, grow in spiritual unity, and establish rhythms that keep their marriage deeply rooted in Christ, as they live on mission and reflect His presence to the world.
The retreat will include teaching, group discussion, fellowship, breakout groups, and couples time.
