No one goes into marriage planning a divorce...

  • The ratio of marriages to divorces is 2 to 1
  • 75% of all divorced people remarry, half of them within three years, and 50% of those remarriages end in divorce
  • 43% of first marriages end within 15 years
  • Couples who attend an extensive pre-marital training course have a divorce rate 50% lower than couples who do not
  • Couples who were willing to seek counseling before and during their first three years of marriage were found to have less chance of divorce

Marriage Keepers.

This is a new ministry beginning March 2010. If you’re getting married and attending CVVC (or even if you don’t attend here, but have an interest) we will assign a mentor couple to you, give you a magnet with their picture and contact info and they will be in touch with you 4-6 weeks after your marriage. They will walk with you for the 1st year of your marriage and initiate times together just to encourage you and your marriage.

Call Stephanie for more information 248-5959.
