With the Bible and other recovery tools of 12-step programs, we are couples committed to restoring healthy communication, caring, and greater intimacy and connection in our relationships - with God and each other. Our group seeks to help couples find freedom from dysfunctional patterns in relationships.
We want to build marriages to display God's glory and patterned after Jesus' covenant commitment to His church. We may have been separated or near divorce due to addictions and intimacy problems. We now seek, in community, to build functional and edifying relationships as we grow together as couples.

We are a life group centered around growing in Christ as families with babies and young children. We will meet on Wednesday nights (6-7:30pm) and begin with a potluck dinner. We are open to pitching in together for babysitting if the group wants. We will look to start and end on time to respect bedtime for little ones.
