May Marriage Retreat – Ruidoso, New Mexico

Happy young couple hugging and smiling with text that reads, May Marriage Retreat
It’s time for our May marriage retreat. We’re so excited about seeing marriages like yours grow and get stronger.
 
Wherever you are in your marriage, you can take it to the next level and have fun in the process.
 
Couples will get away and work on some of the most common marriage issues like communication, conflict resolution, growth in intimacy, and help understanding why you respond to each other as you do at times.
 
You’ll also enjoy beautiful accommodations and time spent with each other.
 
My husband and I will be leading the retreat. Mike is a pastor and biblical counselor and I’m a certified biblical counselor. We have been counseling couples for twenty-plus years and, by God’s grace, have seen hundreds of marriages change and grow over the years.
 

What Other Participants Have to Say:

“We truly believe the Lord placed you in our lives when we needed it most. Thank you so much!”
 
“Great biblical teaching. There were so many practical suggestions for leading a more God-focused life.”
 
“Thank you for being such an inspiration, encouragement, and tremendous blessing. Thank you for all that you do.”
 
“You helped us find our way back!”
 
“Thanks so much for everything you have done for us. You are truly a blessing from God and we praise him for that. We thank you for helping us. May God continue to bless you in your ministry.”
 
Here are some snapshots from our last marriage retreat:
 
 

Retreats include:

  • Two nights in a beautiful B&B (see photos below) in Ruidoso, New Mexico
  • All but one meal included (that evening is reserved for a date night)
  • All materials
  • Biblically-based marriage sessions
  • One-on-one follow-up with each couple, if desired

Sessions Include:

  • God’s Design for Marriage
  • God’s Design for the Husband
  • God’s Design for the Wife
  • How Do We Change & Grow?
  • The Heart of the Problem
  • God’s Design for Communication
  • 7 Characteristics of Good Communication
  • Genuine Intimacy
  • How to Keep Growing

This is a small group retreat, so space is limited. The cost is $500 per couple including accommodations and meals (with the exception of one date night meal).

If you are coming from out of town, Ruidoso is a 2 ½-hour drive from El Paso, Texas.

We hope you’ll think about joining us. Just click on the events tab at the top.

Blessings,

Mike & Donna

*We believe in a biblical view of marriage as between one biological man and one biological woman. And while we will meet privately with couples about their particular situation, retreats are open to couples who meet those qualifications. You can read more about a biblical view of marriage and what we believe by clicking the “what we believe” tab.

When Marriage Isn’t What You Expected

When Marriage Isn’t What You Expected

Mar 12, 2023

Marriage can be one of the greatest human relationships there is. It can offer companionship, friendship, intimacy, and someone to rely on through the ups and downs of life. But sometimes marriage isn't what you expected. Often marriage will test you in ways you weren't prepared for.

Marriage Made in Heaven? Part 2 “Our Story”

Marriage Made in Heaven? Part 2 “Our Story”

Jan 30, 2023

We've all heard the phrase "a marriage made in heaven," but it may bring to mind different thoughts and images. Perhaps, in your case, it's of your parents' marriage and whether it was a good one or a contentious one. Perhaps, it's your own marriage and the thoughts, dreams, commitments, and preconceptions, you had when you married. Perhaps, marriage is something you look forward to or something that has turned out to be challenging or even heartbreaking. Wherever you are in your marriage, I believe you will find some truths here that can help you grow and become more the husband or wife God has called you to be and to have the kind of marriage that brings glory to Him. And if you're single, I pray you'll take away some things that will help you in any future marriage or help you minister to others who are married.

Marriage Made in Heaven

Jan 30, 2023

We've all heard the phrase "a marriage made in heaven." But depending on your life situation, the word marriage may bring to mind different thoughts and images. Perhaps it's of your parents' marriage and whether it was a good one or a contentious one. Or maybe it's your own marriage and the thoughts, dreams, commitments, and even preconceptions, you had when you married. Or perhaps, marriage is something you are still looking forward to. Wherever you are ... married, divorced, widowed, or single, I pray you'll take away truths from this series that will help you in your own or any future marriage or help you minister to others who are married.
