Who should attend?
Any couple (engaged or thinking about marriage) who wants to learn more about each other and the skills it takes to make a marriage work.

What will it include?
* the foundations of marriage/relationship
* six danger signs to watch out for

* how to build on the existing strengths of your relationship
* the secrets to keeping marital sex exciting
* three techniques for effective conflict resolution
* a lot of laughter and information!

What is the cost?
Cost of the workshop is only $20 per couple. This is a great gift for parents to give a couple! A lot of money is spent on the cake, dress, tux, invitations, etc.; how about spending $20 to help ensure that a couple starts their life-long covenant of love by learning more about what marriage means and how to stay married?!

At Charis Center, building #17, 4041 Bahia Vista Street, Sarasota (between Beneva & McIntosh on the property of Bahia Vista Mennonite Church).
