The River’s marriage ministry is here to help equip, empower, renew, and heal you as a couple no matter where you are on your marriage journey. We assist couples to grow and mature in the Word of God by learning and applying Biblical truths for a Christ-centered marriage.
RE|ENGAGE
Whether your marriage needs to be reignited or completely resurrected, re|engage is a safe place for you and your spouse to reconnect. Re|engage is a 15-session discipleship-based enrichment course for every marriage. We offer it twice a year. To learn more, please contact pastor Dean McKenzie at dmckenzie@therivercc.com.
PRE-MARITAL
“Healthy Marriages Start Long Before the Wedding”
We offer a 6 week “Preparing for Marriage” class twice a year (spring and fall).
What to expect:
We help prepare engaged couples and those seriously considering engagement for a marriage based on Biblical principles. This course is approximately 6 week study. This study consists of the premarital couple reading and answering questions prior to each session. Study topics include communication, roles and responsibilities, intimacy, finances and expectations.
MARRIED COUPLES
Besides our marriage enrichment opportunities, we also offer an avenue for married couples to connect with other married couples through our River Life Groups (small groups). We have groups from “young married” to “empty nesters” and every season between. These groups meet on different nights and times throughout the week. To view our Life Group listing click here or contact pastor Dean McKenzie at dmckenzie@therivercc.com.
MARRIAGE COUNSELING
Sometimes our marriage needs some intervention. If you and your spouse find yourselves stuck in a rut or possibly at a breaking point, please let us help. We partner with local Christian marriage counselors/mentors that can help you navigate your current situation and find hope and healing.
