Our Marriage Ministry uses **Prepare/Enrich**, the leading premarital and marriage assessment tool. This evidence-based program enhances relationships through skill-building and insightful exercises, and is recognized globally for improving couples' dynamics. Tailored to each couple's unique needs, Prepare/Enrich offers valuable exercises to strengthen your relationship skills.

Do you want to understand each other better and argue less? Feel confident discussing important topics? Learn how to support each other as both friends and partners? Whether you've been married for 0, 5, 10, 25 years or more, the Prepare/Enrich Assessment can help.

We train Marriage Mentors with the Prepare/Enrich curriculum to guide both newly engaged and long-time married couples. With the support of a Marriage Mentor and the Prepare/Enrich program, you will receive outstanding tools to improve and grow your relationship.

FPC regularly hosts Love Reboot Marriage Intensive Weekends in collaboration with the San Antonio-based Growing Love Network, founded by Jon Anderson. Love Reboot could be the most transformative three days of your marriage. Whether your relationship needs a boost or a complete do-over, Love Reboot has proven to be more effective than traditional marriage counseling methods. We have successfully worked with over 1,000 struggling couples, providing a pathway to stronger and more fulfilling relationships.

If you are recently separated, dealing with an affair, or considering divorce, we strongly urge both spouses to attend a Love Reboot workshop before pursuing other forms of counseling or marriage courses. Taking this step towards healing can dramatically improve your marriage.

Each semester, we offer 1-2 marriage-specific Sunday School classes. These classes provide a supportive community and valuable insights to help couples strengthen their relationships and grow together in faith.

SAMI seeks to be a local presence connecting and uniting people across our community with the shared vision to serve marriages. They bring together authors, researchers, counselors, pastors, podcasters, marriage leaders and more. Resources, classes, and events are available for premarital, marriage enrichment, those struggling, those considering divorce, and those who need counselors.
