More premarital preparation needs to be done since between 43 percent to half of all first-time marriages will end in divorce. As recently as the late 1990's, only 25% to 33% of couples attended any relationship education prior to marriage.
Today, comprehensive assessments like PREPARE help couples indentify and resolve likely conflicts prior to the marriage. Premarital classes help couples learn about common areas of concern (communication, sex, finances, children). Marriage Mentors serve as experienced guides to help newly married couples negotiate the well-worn trail of marriage.
If your church is not presently partnering with MNO, we invite you to ask your church leadership to investigate MNO and consider how we might work together (http://www.marriagenetworkok.net/).
