HOPE WEEKEND
For highly stressed couples, couples contemplating divorce, or couples seeking a deeper connection.
Did you know that traditional Marriage Counseling has about a 35% rate of success in restoring and healing marriages? Marriage Intensives, on the other hand, succeed with over 80% of couples who complete the experience. While traditional counseling takes months, a Marriage Intensive over two to three days can clear obstacles and develop relational skills with immediate results.
​
Marriage Intensives are also a great way to deepen connection and intimacy in your marriage. Hope Weekend provides tools to help couples deepen their bond and recapture those “in-love” feelings.
​
The vision for our Hope Weekend Marriage Retreat is simple: We want marriages to be healed and restored so more children will grow up in happier, healthier homes.
The average cost of a divorce is over $30,000. Our marriage retreat, comparatively, is only $2,499 per couple (does not include food or lodging) and we have an 84% success rate with all of our couples (including those who have already started divorce proceedings).
HOPE WEEKEND PROVIDES SPECIFIC, PRACTICAL, ATTAINABLE SKILLS TO HELP COUPLES:​​
-
Learn the essential relationship skills required to develop, maintain, and sustain a deeply bonded and connected relationship

ONE ON ONE INTENSIVES
In addition to Hope Weekend, we also offer a one-on-one marriage intensive. The intensive, pairs a trained pastoral counselor or relationship coach with one couple for two or three full days of exploration, education, and skills development. As a couple learns new tools for communication, intimacy building, and conflict resolution those skills are put into immediate use to build the lasting marriage both desire.
To set up a one-on-one intensive, you can contact us through email at David@livethelife.org or by calling 912.399.5223.
