MARRIAGE PREPARATION COUNSELING In addition to assisting you with the wedding day, the Church wishes to assist you in building a successful marriage . In order to do this, the Pastor requires that all couples complete a premarital program. These counseling sessions will be held by qualified counselors and ministers of Bates Memorial and a total 4 classes and are designed to deepen your awareness of the challenges of living together in a Christian marriage. Through discussions, you will have the opportunity to concentrate more intensely on the many facets of married life. Some of the topics presented include: the changing nature of marriage, personal growth and couple adjustment, mutual decision-making, the elements of effective communication, conflict management, intimacy, financial planning, and the extended family . The marriage preparation counseling sessions should be completed well in advance of the date of the wedding. COUNSELING SESSIONS ARE OFFERED ONCE A QUARTER. NO couple will be married at Bates Memorial unless the counseling is completed. The FIRST Premarital Class is MANDATORY and cannot be made up. ALSO BOTH MEMBERS OF THE COUPLE MUST BE IN ATTENDANCE. Please note that Bates Memorial prides itself on honoring the strictest confidences concerning your appointments and anything discussed in the counseling sessions will remain between the couple and the counselors. It is your responsibility as a couple to attend and complete the marriage preparation counseling.
