Choosing a Theme
As with any other type of retreat, narrowing in on a specific theme for your marriage retreat will help to form the weekend.
The most successful marriage retreats today are those that not only bring in the biblical intent of marriage, but also address the issues couples are facing today – with a biblical approach. Identifying what your congregational needs are will help you to choose the theme that fits your retreat the best. Let your entire committee be involved in selecting the theme – they will need to incorporate this into each of their specific areas.

The Event Team
As with any successful idea it usually takes a team to pull it off. A great mix of people & personalities all working together for the success of the “thing”. A Marriage Retreat is no different! While the Pastor may have a great idea for the theme or message…they can’t do it all themselves.

We hand out 5:13 to our staff and volunteers who go above and beyond the call to serve guests with love. It is based on Galations 5:13. This week we are featuring our housekeeping team at Lake Williamson. One of our lead housekeepers, Melissa, is a GREAT example of 513 to her team. Melissa, we appreciate your hard work, leadership, and commitment to serving our guests well!
