Creative Ideas

  • From All Saints in Crowborough: On the Sunday nearest to Valentine's Day church members were given a leaflet of ideas for celebrating marriage and family life.  Just two examples  from the leaflet: one was to agree as a couple to have one meal a week together, just the two of you; another was to keep one night a week as a family night, and for each member of the family in turn to choose what to do on the family night.

 

  • Couple mentoring: Where possible encourage your church to provide engaged couples with a mentor couple to befriend them and support them during their engagement and in the early years of their marriage.
