FROM Don. G. White ~
What would stronger marriages mean for your church and its families?
What if there was a way to significantly drop the divorce rate of
couples in your church?
The National Institute for Family Study reports that the divorce rate
for couples attending a Marriage Encounter Weekend is just 2% versus
the 50% rate as a national average. They also report that the Weekend
experience benefits not only the couple and their marriage, but also has a
positive effect on family communication and parenting.
Marriage Encounter-United Methodist is the oldest marriage-related
Affiliate Member of the General Board of Discipleship of The United
Methodist Church and is one of the marriage resources of our church.
Registrations are currently being taken for the ME-UM Weekend to be held in
Houston on March 10-12, 2006. For information contact: Becky and Nick
Munger at 281-360-3646 or e-mail at bamunger@yahoo.com
