How to build healthy marriages that last a lifetime

The course, designed by HTB, is a series of 8 evenings, where couples enjoy a good meal together, then watch a video on an aspect of marriage before discussing privately, issues raised by the video and guided by a handbook over coffee and chocolates. in between the sessions, couples are encouraged to have time together, marriage time, when they can build on what they have learned and complete ‘homework’ tasks.

Subjects include; foundations, communication, recognising each other’s needs, resolving conflicts, forgiveness, relating to parents and in-laws and good sex.

Five couples piloted the course and Simon & Judy, Tim & Jo and Roz & Hedley hosted the 2nd course recently, which saw another 5 couples participating. A third course is planned to begin on 4th March and we hope to bring this much needed tool to an ever widening community.
