Support for marriage strengthening projects have been a key component of FIC’s mission from our earliest days. We are pleased to share this opportunity from Biblically-based FamilyLife: register for a “Weekend to Remember” Marriage Getaway through Monday, and your spouse attends for free. The next event in our region takes place at the Hyatt Regency in Newport, RI from April 22-24 (information and registration here — please note the instructions about hotel reservations, which are not made automatically through this page).

What is the Marriage Getaway? Why attend? From FamilyLife.com:

“The two-and-a-half day getaway weekend is a time to be together as a couple to invest in and strengthen the foundation of your marriage, no matter how firm or fragile it is. By getting away from the distractions of life, you can fortify your most important relationship and work toward building wonderful memories together, for decades to come.

“The Weekend to Remember getaway is not a large counseling session, and you will not be asked to participate in small groups. Rather, you will receive biblically centered, marriage-changing principles with interactive activities that you can take home and apply to your daily lives in order to strengthen your marriage.”

From all of us at FIC: May God bless your marriage now and throughout your lives!
