Any couple getting married at Christ’s Church will go through our Pre-Marital Counseling Track. Our desire is to help you to develop tools that will increase your ability to serve and love each other for a lifetime. The track involves a commitment to abstain from sexual intimacy in the lead-up to the wedding, 6-8 counseling sessions that utilize the “PREPARE” relationship assessment, and attending the “Saving Your Marriage Before It Starts” class on Sunday Mornings.
