Alpha Marriage Course
The Course is also open to couples who are dating, engaged, or in a committed relationship, not just those who are already married. You do not need to be married to attend, just willing to invest in your relationship and take the next step together.
The Alpha Marriage Course is a 7-week series designed to help couples strengthen their relationship, build deeper connection, and develop practical tools for a healthy, lasting marriage. This course provides a supportive, faith-based environment where couples can explore key topics such as communication, conflict resolution, forgiveness, intimacy, and shared purpose. Whether your marriage is strong or facing challenges, the Alpha Marriage Course offers encouragement, wisdom, and practical skills for every stage of married life.
The course meets on Tuesdays from 5:30–7:30 PM, beginning in Spring and Fall.
