MISSION STATEMENT 

To strengthen families by building strong Christ-centered marriages that glorify God through marriage mentoring.

WHAT WE BELIEVE 

We view marriage as a lifelong union/relationship between a man and a woman as husband and wife. We believe that the bedrock of the family begins with the relationship between the husband and the wife. When the marriage relationship is healthy, the family is healthy. We believe that all people can change and most marriages can thrive when they apply healthy principles and faithfully use practical tools.
