The Marriage Preparation course is run by Nicky and Sila Lee, who have been married for over 25 years and speak regularly on relationships and marriage preparation. They are co-authors of The Marriage Book.

The evenings are designed for any engaged couple. While based on Christian principles, the course is relevant and helpful for any couple with or without a Christian faith or church background.
Topics covered include:

• Communication
• Commitment
• Resolving conflict
• Keeping love alive
• Shared values

Each evening begins with supper. There is then a talk, followed by an opportunity for each couple to discuss issues raised. There is no group work. Each couple has the chance to discuss these issues with a married 'support couple' if they wish.

The cost of the course is £65 per couple (Early Booking Rate for bookings made by 31 August) or £75 for registrations received thereafter. Bursaries are also available, please contact us and we will be pleased to discuss this option.

The Marriage Preparation Course takes place over five Thursday evenings from 7pm to 9.45pm at Holy Trinity Brompton. The next course will take place on the following dates:

• 18 September 2008

'The first session was absolutely amazing. We discovered things about each other that we had not realised in the three years we've been together.'

'We had issues that both of us were too scared to bring up, but did during the course.'
