Looking Toward Marriage

(Our Spring course is now full). Our next course will begin in the Fall.

The Looking Toward Marriage Class is a course for those seriously considering marriage, as well as for those couples already engaged or even couples married less than a year. It is required of all engaged couples getting married at Fairfax Community or by one of our pastors, and is encouraged for all other couples considering marriage. Early bird registration is $60 per person (each partner must register). After the early bird cutoff, the registration fee increases to $70.

Details:

God designed marriage to be a lasting covenant between husband, wife, and their Lord. The purpose of this group is to prepare and equip couples for a God blessed, God centered, and lasting relationship. It is also an opportunity for those couples considering marriage to evaluate their relationship. This class is held two times a year, in early Spring and early Fall.

Registration:

Each individual must register separately for this class. The class size is limited to 20 couples and will fill quickly.

The early-bird registration fee is $60 per person which covers curriculum, supplies, and lunch for the Saturday session. Registration fee after the Early Bird cutoff is $70 per person. If you have questions, please email Lynn at lynnlundberg@fairfax.cc.
