Maximize Your Marriage & Come Together As One

September 17, 2021 @ 7:00 pm - September 18, 2021 @ 5:00 pm
Join Be One with Me for a weekend of encouragement in your marriage!

Have you ever wondered how to maximize your marriage for God’s Kingdom and come together as one?

Perhaps, you haven’t quite laid out a vision for your marriage or you have but real life is getting in the way.

Join us on September 17th-18th, 2021 for a 2-day marriage retreat. We’ll have dinner, dancing, games, prizes, and more.

Keith Tower, Former NBA Player and Pastor of Highpoint Church in Orlando, Florida and his wife of 27 years, Jennifer, will guide couples through highly interactive and fun sessions.

You’ll walk away with a better understanding of one another and a custom marriage plan for how to maximize your marriage based on your unique personalities.

On Friday, September 17th from 7p.m.-9:30p.m. you’ll have the opportunity to enjoy a sit-down candlelight dinner date with your spouse while light music plays in the background. We’ll also have dancing, fun games and prizes. Childcare will be provided as well as dinner for the children.

On Saturday, September 18th from 9a.m. – 5p.m., join us for complimentary breakfast, worship, and the following sessions:

Session 1:

Maximizing Your Marriage

Maximizing Your Connection

Maximizing Your Communication

Session 2:

Maximizing Your Consideration

Maximizing Your Calendar

Maximizing Your Conflict (Resolution)

Session 3:

Maximizing Your Closeness

On Saturday, we’ll also have games and prizes and you’ll have dedicated “couple time” over an extended lunch so that in addition to getting equipped and refreshed, you get to enjoy one-on-one time together, too. You’ll be responsible for lunch with your spouse on Saturday afternoon but we will provide lunch for children in childcare.

This event is an in-person event. The sessions will be live-streamed via the Church’s YouTube Channel, however, we encourage in-person attendance to truly benefit from the experience.

Free childcare is available. Please indicate your need during registration.

Early bird pricing is $25 per couple until Friday, September 3rd, 2021. Pricing will go up to $35 per couple on Saturday, September 4th.

Pricing includes dinner Friday evening and breakfast and snacks on Saturday for both adults and children. It also includes lunch on Saturday for children.

Register today and join us for a fun, refreshing and fruitful weekend.

Registration closes Wednesday, September 15th to allow time to finalize catering.

Frequently Asked Questions

What health and safety measures will be followed?

We will be doing temperature checks at the door and masks will be required for adults and children 2 years and older. Couples will be spaced out at round tables during dinner and we will limit the number of couples per table. Surfaces will be sanitized and we’re partnering with a reputable catering company.

What will childcare look like for my child and will he or she be required to wear a mask the entire time?

The wonderful Grace Kids Team is providing childcare for the event on both Friday and Saturday. They’ll have a lot of fun activities planned.

To give children a break from wearing masks all day on Saturday, the team will plan some outdoor activities throughout the day so children can go outside for some fresh air and have the opportunity to remove their masks.

What meals are provided and what am I responsible for?

We will provide dinner for adults and children in childcare on Friday evening.

On Saturday, we will provide breakfast and snacks for both adults and children. We will also provide lunch for children in childcare. Couples will be responsible for their own lunch during their extended lunch date out.

What if I (or my child) has dietary restrictions?

We will do our best to have fruit, vegetables and gluten-free and dairy-free items available. If your child has a food allergy, we ask that you tell the Grace Kids team during sign-in and pack food items accordingly.
