Preparing Yourself for Your Future Marriage & Becoming Your Best Self for Marriage
International students and scholars (and their spouses) are invited to join a six-week class about relationship. No matter whether you are single, in a relationship, or married, this class will benefit you. This six-week class will cover topics about marriage that include Christian perspectives and principles with the Bible as a reference point.
We hope that this class will help you prepare for your future marriage and help you be a better person for your future spouse (if you are single) or for your marriage (if you are married). You’ll have a chance to ask questions, discuss, as we have fun along the way. This class is not formal, and there is no homework. Yet, this will be a time to learn, have fun, and meet nice people. When: Monday nights from 7:00 pm to 8:30 pm, March 7 through April 11. You can attend any meetings that you are available. Simple dinner will be provided, so you can eat and listen at the same time :) Where: International House on 2810 N. Calvert St. Speaker: Greg Hard and Jacob Jasin |
