ATTENTION ALL COUPLES – Save the date Saturday, April 11, at 1:00 pm for Mocktails & Massage. Join us for a peaceful afternoon created especially for married couples. Master Massage Therapist Jaqueta Rascoe will gently guide you in learning simple techniques to massage your spouse’s neck, shoulders, back, and feet; practical skills you can continue using at home to nurture connection and care. Enjoy specially curated mocktails prepared by our Mocktail Maven, Kierra Smallwood, along with light refreshments in a tranquil atmosphere designed to calm your mind and refresh your spirit.

Connecting Couples is excited to host the 10 Great Dates series! This is a fun, practical marriage experience designed to help couples reconnect, strengthen communication, and enjoy intentional time together. Each “date” focuses on meaningful conversation, laughter, and growing closer — without it feeling like work. We’re hosting a virtual information meeting on Thursday, March 19, at 7 pm, to share all the details and answer your questions. This opportunity is open to both church members and the community, and it will be led by Ken and Vernita Griffith. If you’re ready to invest in your marriage in a way that’s fun and enriching, sign up in the copier room. We’d love to see you there!
