GUIDING PRINCIPLES

We believe that marriage is a Holy union between a man and woman that is instituted and approved by God. We believe that marriage is the foundation of the Christian family and the cornerstone of society. Therefore, it is protected by the laws of God and the nation’s government. We believe that such commitment is until “death do us part.” We believe that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is the man.

We believe that spouses are one body in Christ Jesus; and thus we must strive to increase our unity by learning Godly principles of marriage. As one body we know that we may all come short of the Glory of God, and in forgiving one another we may also receive the forgiveness of God. As one body we leave mother and father and become united with one another. As one body we shall not deprive one another physically, mentally or emotionally, knowing that to do so would bring us into temptation through which satan can bring destruction. As one body we will share our life experiences with our spouse, for in acting as one we shall become one.

COUPLES OUTINGS

The couples periodically enjoy entertainment outings to events that are screened for their content. It may include, but is not limited to, theater, cruises and other Christian social gatherings.
