Wives of Grace "Making Connections in Marriage"

You will make known to me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; In Your right hand there are pleasures forever. Psalms 16:11

Marriage is very special and having strong bonds of connection with our spouse can increase our joy and help us experience greater togetherness. Effectively building these bonds requires intentionality and are best done with God’s help.

Join us to hear more about making connections in marriage on Saturday, June 6 from 11 to 11:30 a.m. EST

This is a virtual event and registration is required to attend. A link to join will be provided 24 hours before the event.
