"A Day For Us" Marriage Retreat - Because Good Marriages Don't Just Happen


A DAY-LONG RETREAT for sharpening your marriage skills and learning more about what makes a great marriage work.  


Why is it that some couples succeed in marriage and others don't? That was the question author and researcher John Gottman had when he began his research 40 years ago, which produced his ground breaking book full of helpful insights to improve your relationship - The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work.

Couples are invited to this one-day "retreat," to  learn about healthy relationships and how you can improve yours. This is for couples who are married or considering it. 

The event takes place from 8 am - 6 pm on Saturday, March 22, 2014 at Trinity Covenant Church, Livingston, New Jersey. Lunch and refreshments will be provided.  The retreat donation is $50.00 per couple ($10 additional to buy the Gottman book).  

RSVP to Trinity Covenant Church at (973) 992-4044 or at TrinityCovenantChurch@Gmail.com.  Learn more at www.TrinityCovenantChurch.com.
