The tentative date for our next Growing Together Marriage Weekend will be Friday to Sunday, May 18–20, 2012 at the five star Kuzuko Lodge.
This is a fantastic deal at a greatly reduced price!

Guaranteed Romance!

Love is the most powerful force on earth. For the love of a woman, a man will swim the deepest ocean and climb the highest mountain. History records that for the love of a woman, a king abdicated his throne; a wealthy nobleman spent a lifetime and many fortunes building a castle; and a military statesman conquered a nation. The joining together is like two streams flowing side by side and then blending. When the two streams come together, there is a great deal of foam and splashing, however, as they become one, they are stronger and deeper than either one of them were individually.

God never intended for our marriage to be a reformatory school, but rather an environment for growing and learning in which (if everything is as it should be) both partners can grow and develop. God wants to use your marriage for His purpose. He will mould you for your own benefit and for His glory. We think that there are only two individuals involved, which is true in part, but there is a third who can give even greater meaning to your individual and married life—that person is Jesus
Christ.

 The weekend is loaded with surprises and the topics covered are:

  • Covenant
  • How to Love Your Mate
  • Stages of Marriage
  • Leaving the Old and Clinging to the New
  • The Roles Love and Respect Play
  • Fulfilment in Physical Love

The Presenting team is led by Pastors Pierre (B.A. Admission) and Rose de Vos. Pierre is a full time pastor and a resourceful counsellor who has seen many marriages healed. Rose is an ex school principal and is dedicated to wholeness in the family. Charl and Marianne Lötter have been involved in marriage counselling since 1985 and together helped many couples through many difficult situations. Their humorous way of presenting the most difficult topic of the sexual union has become very popular amongst many churches and people. The rest of the team are Ralton and Amanda Terblanche, André and Sheena Engel, Dawie and Somária Fourie and Jacques and Charlene Erasmus. This team is dedicated to give you a weekend that you will never forget!
