Join Serving Marriages for this retreat dedicated to serving those that serve our country. While you guard our freedom, and our families, allow us to help you guard your marriage.


Ted Lowe will be joining us for this year’s retreat. Through humor, transparency, biblical wisdom, research, and a massive amount of practicality, Ted will help us focus on what he calls "The 5 Boss Thoughts of Marriage." Based on scripture and research, these five guiding thoughts will help set your mind to love in the way you want and your spouse needs.
