Premarital Counseling: Marriage Foundations

Marriage Foundations is our premarital class; it is required for those who wish to be married at our church. This weekend course covers a number of relevant topics and is offered multiple times a year. Counseling appointments are included for those who participate in the course and include 6-month and 1 year post-marriage check-ins.

Recommended resources include The Meaning of Marriage by Tim Keller; What Did You Expect? by Paul Tripp; Love & Respect by Emerson Eggerichs.

Our next session is September 24–25; learn more and register.

Re|engage

Registration is not open. Details coming soon.

Re|engage is a marriage enrichment program designed to enhance marriages by helping couples grow as disciples of Jesus Christ. Whether you are struggling to get along, things seem beyond repair, or you simply want to grow closer together, re|engage offers hope to marriages by helping couples move toward oneness through stories of grace, teaching, and small groups.

Marriage Mentors

Mentor couples come alongside young marrieds (couples married less than three years) as you build a strong foundation for your marriage. For details, please contact Bruce & Nancy Young. Mentor couples will soon be available for couples married 4 – 15 years.

Support for Military Families

More than one in ten persons in our church is current or former military. Connect with other military members and find community or support, whether you are stateside or deployed.

Transitioning to or from the Capital region? We’d be honored to assist you in whatever way(s) we can, regardless of whether you choose to attend our church. Connect with one of our pastors Nathan Newman, who is also an Air Force Reserve Chaplain, at [email protected].

Ch Newman is available for one-on-one counseling; all meetings are covered under Privileged Communication and are 100 percent confidential. This privilege belongs to military members, dependents, and other authorized Department of Defense members.

Military Women’s Fellowship

The Military Women’s Fellowship provides an ongoing opportunity for military women, including spouses, active duty and retired service members to connect and encourage one another in a relaxed environment. Even in this socially distanced season, we’d love to provide community and encouragement during your family’s assignment. To connect, contact [email protected].
