Family Matters

Family Matters meets on Sunday evenings (September-May) from 5:30-7:00 p.m. at the church. This program provides a quarterly rotating schedule of classes which focus on strengthening marriages and parenting. Family Matters is also an entry level experience into our Life Communities.

The program also offers premarital and marital counseling through Prepare-Enrich. Call the office (352-9044) to obtain an appointment for counseling. We ask that all couples planning on being married at Emmanuel complete the Prepare inventories (Cost: $30/per couple) and attend a minimum of nine counseling sessions prior to marriage (Pastor Art will give you all the necessary information for completing the online inventories).



The current Family Matters study is:
