Purpose

We believe marriage is both the design of and a gift from God. We also know that we often move into this union with little to no real understanding of God’s design or real world “training”. We long to become a church where marriages are built, equipped, encouraged, and (if necessary) restored. Our Marriage Ministry team aims at coming alongside couples wherever they find themselves on their martial journey.
