Do you know about the Family Life Marriage Weekend Getaways? All over the country Family Life holds weekend getaways for engaged and married couples. Both sets of parents required Brad and I to attend when we were engaged and we were strongly encouraged to attend after marriage. We did and we've been once more and we're going again next month. Whether your marriage is on the verge of divorce, blissful or somewhere inbetween, this getaway is for you! I mean that. Each time we go, Brad and I gleen something that we need to work on or change.
The getaway is very well done. Speakers share from God's Word how God intended for marriage to be. They explain God's design for marriage and share with you their struggles and struggles others have had. It's always encouraging to Brad and me to know our struggles are no unique to our marriage. On Saturday night they encourage you to go on a date; just the two of you. Now when was the last time you dated your spouse? No children, no work, no phones, no interruptions?
I encourage you to sign up today. Go online to FamilyLife.org and look for a getaway near you. You can also call 1-800-FL-Today. If you live in the DFW area, the getaway is the weekend of June 25th at the Gaylord Texan in Grapevine. If you sign up, please give the group name "Leffler." If you'd like to know more about the weekend, please feel free to contact me at thelefflers@sbcglobal.net.
Brad's parents were the DFW city directors for many years. His precious mother is going to serve again this year. Please pray for her and us as we attend the conference this year; it will be difficult for all of us without Skip.
I pray that you will sign up. And that the Lord will use this weekend to change your marriage and your love for your spouse.
