The Art of Marriage Event

All are encouraged to attend and are welcome, whether single, divorced, newly married, or welcoming your 50th wedding anniversary. Every marriage relationship is in a constant state of movement: you are either growing closer together, or further apart. Unfortunately, it seems that the natural inclination of the human heart is to drift apart over time. This event is designed to heighten even the best of marriages. It also serves as a great reminder that you are God’s gift to each other. For questions or to register, contact Diedra McGruder at diedramcgruder@yahoo.com or 573-808-6815.
