Couple's Retreat Recap

BubbleShare: Share photos - Easy Photo Sharing

What a wonderful time! We hope you enjoyed your experience and took the opportunity to grow and have fun with your spouse!

We wanted to make available some of the resources that were provided during the retreat.
HERE is the link to the pictures that were professionally taken.
HERE are the massage techniques.
HERE are the love starter questions.
HERE are instructions for the relationship timeline.

We also have a growing collection of marriage enrichment resources in the Spouse & Family office available for you to check out. This includes Gary Thomas' 'Sacred Marriage' book and dvd that were shown at the retreat. If there is enough interest, we may be inclined to have a "movie night" where we can watch the entirety of the videos together over snacks.

Help us do next year's retreat up right too ~ LEAVE A COMMENT about
1. What you most enjoyed about the retreat
2. How the experience enriched your marriage
