| 12-week Seminar
The Nearly & Newly Wed Leadership Team is led by Cindy Dykes, our Pastor's wife. In an insightful and humorous way, Cindy speaks the truth and helps each couple face the realities of their decision to marry.
This three-month course is offered twice a year. In a room full of engaged or newly weds, couples learn about communication skills, conflict resolution, financial management, decision making, role responsibilities, sexual intimacy, and dealing with in-laws. Upcoming classes and content announced here.
