Marriage Enrichment

Oftentimes in the hectic day to day business of home, family, work, and church the marriage relationship is not given the time it needs to flourish and grow. There are many opportunities for couples to take time for themselves as a couple to enrich and restore their marriage. Sometimes as couples we forget a most necessary part of marriage; to listen, dream, set goals, and romance one another. The Diocese of Bismarck offers suggestions on enrichments as well as holds specific workshops, events, and series for helping with marriage issues. For further information please call Joyce McDowall, Office of Family Ministry, 701-222-3035, toll free 1-877-405-7435.
