Laughing, Learning, and Gaining Community
When was the last time you had the opportunity to disconnect from the world? Attending this retreat will allow you to hear powerful messages and then spend time putting what you learned into practice. The weekend is designed for you to spend quality time with your spouse and gain community. You need both. God desires that you have a magnificent marriage. He wants you to have more fire than when you had that first kiss, more laughter today than yesterday, and more happiness and fulfillment as each day goes by. At the close of the retreat, there will be an all white party. The entire weekend is transformational.
