MarriageRestored
is a weekend away from home, family and responsibilities.
Here, in a comfortable, secluded environment, a couple
is guided in the discovery of a new way of communicating
that will help them reclaim the joy in their marriage.
It is not a
retreat, but a program designed to give couples the
opportunity to examine their lives together, their
strengths and weaknesses, and their attitudes toward
each other and their families.
MarriageRestored
is based on the belief that the marriage relationship
is the most significant, most intimate relationship
on earth.

A MarriageRestored
weekend is not a marriage clinic or a sensitivity
group, nor a seminar nor counseling.
It is not a
problem-solving workshop. Couples do not disclose
their problems to the group or team couples for discussion
or criticism.

MarriageRestored
is designed for couples who are:
|
•
|
Concerned about
the ability of their marriage to survive |
|
•
|
Increasingly distant
from their partner |
|
•
|
Increasingly hurt
and angry with each other |
|
•
|
Dealing with the
effects of infidelity or life-controlling habits
(substance abuse, compulsive gambling, pornography,
etc.) |
|
•
|
Considering separation
or divorce |
If any
of these describes your marriage, we believe that
MarriageRestored can help.

In many marriages, hope is nearly
gone. Sometimes the pressures of living together seem
almost too difficult to bear, there is little or no
communication, and couples consider separation or
divorce. In some cases, couples may have already separated
or divorced, but are ready to work on their relationship.
MarriageRestored is for couples
who wish to put the pieces back together and rebuild
loving relationships.

///Who
conducts MR weekends? |
|
MarriageRestored weekends
are an outreach ministry of Assemblies of God Expression
of Marriage Encounter, Inc., a non-profit organization.
Each MarriageRestored weekend is conducted
by three or four Assemblies of God couples, who
are trained to present MarriageRestored
weekends.
These presenting couples have experienced
disillusionment, pain, anger, and conflict. Some have
dealt with infidelity or life-controlling habits.
These couples have found hope in this ministry and
offer it to you. You are not alone in your struggle.
Although MarriageRestored
is conducted from an Assemblies of God perspective,
couples of all faiths are welcome.

///What
happens at an MR weekend? |
|
Sessions begin Friday evening and
run through Sunday afternoon. At each session a husband
and wife team give an informal talk on various aspects
of married life. Time is set aside following each
presentation for couples to discuss privately, away
from the group, their relationship as it relates
to the topic presented.
The weekend is structured, orderly
and informative.

A non-refundable registration fee
of $75 is required to secure a reservation. MarriageRestored
is entirely self-supporting. At the close of the weekend
you will be given the opportunity to make an anonymous
donation, sharing in the cost and support of MarriageRestored.
However, no one is ever refused the opportunity to
attend an Assemblies of God MarriageRestored
weekend because of lack of funds.
