The West-Ark church of Christ is dedicated to strengthening
and supporting healthy marriages as God intended.

We believe that marriage is the most significant human relationship that exists. What happens in the home reflects on children, schools, communities, churches, businesses and nations.
If you have a spouse; are divorced, remarried, or widowed; have step-children or don't; if your relationship is blissful, miserable or somewhere in between -- this seminar is for you! It has been designed to benefit all relationships.
We invite you to come to any or all sessions.
There is no cost.
Childcare will be provided.
