  • The Marriage Care University (MCU) exists to provide married couples the opportunity to give a season of time to the deepening and maturing of their marriage relationship. MCU provides couples a multi-week focus that includes the discussion of materials regarding their relationship as well as completing weekly "homework!" By completing and submitting this application you are inferring that you are deeply committed to your marriage and desire to discover how you can become a better spouse.

    • Thank you for taking the time to complete this registration. Your responses will help the Marriage Care University team to prepare for each session.

      The Marriage Care University is being offered to those couples who want to spend several weeks working on themselves and their marriage. By attending MCU you are expressing you love your spouse enough to work on your attitudes and behaviors. Each week you will be asked and expected to complete all of the homework assignments. You will be asked to share your homework experiences with others in your small group. The MCU experience is designed for couples to see real change in how they do life together as a couple. Each week you will receive very practical tools that you can employ in your marriage. Each week you will be challenged to leave behind lazy and unyielding behaviors while challenged to employ intentional and life-giving behaviors. At the end of the course we believe you will see measurable differences in your marriage. More importantly you will have received a significant amount of information and encouragement that you can employ over the life of your marriage. You should not attend MCU if you are not able to commit to the schedule, the completion of the homework exercises, and the personal effort required. If you are accepted into this current session of MCU you will be notified of your acceptance and the cost of your materials for the course you selected. For couples needing child care we will offer KidCare for a flat fee of $5 per night per family.

      Lastly, please remember your acceptance into the Marriage Care University is by appointment. If you are approved to attend this session then the Marriage Care ministry team will notify you that your application has been accepted.
