FOREVER ONE CLASS

Getting married is one of the most important decisions you’ll ever make
So much time is invested in preparing for the marriage ceremony. How much more crucial it is to prepare for all the weeks and years you will spend together after you say “I do!”

Forever One will help you experience marriage the way God intended
The Forever One class is for engaged or seriously dating couples. At Grace Covenant, we view the time before the wedding as a season of investment which can lead to a healthy and lifelong marriage. Couples planning to register for the class are encouraged to sign up at least 4 to 6 months prior to their wedding date. There are 3 class offerings a year. It will run for 8 weeks.

Forever One is designed for engaged couples or those who are seriously dating. The cost is $80.00 which covers materials and scoring of the FOCCUS relationship inventory.
Forever One is biblically based and will challenge you to view marriage as God does and to understand what a marriage covenant is all about. During the first class couples will complete an extensive FOCCUS relationship inventory which will examine all aspects of their relationship. At the conclusion of the course each couple will then be assigned a Mentor Couple to review the results of the inventory over several sessions. Mentor couples have been trained to facilitate and interpret the FOCCUS inventory and to build and maintain a relationship with the couple through at least their first year of marriage.

Here’s what’s involved: 
Pre-registration is required.

Important things to remember:
Engaged? This course is REQUIRED to be married by a GCC pastor; it is our premarital counseling. It is offered 3 times per year (Jan, May and Sept) so registering for the Forever One course is one of the first things you do to prepare for marriage! You’ll want to sign up at least 4 to 6 months prior to your wedding date.

Seriously dating? This course is a great opportunity to evaluate your relationship and see what it takes to have a happy marriage relationship. Prepare to be married for a lifetime. It’s too important not to! Getting married is one of the most important decisions you’ll ever make. So much time is invested in preparing for the marriage ceremony.  How much more crucial it is to prepare for all the weeks and years you will spend together after you say “I do!”
