Get away. Just the two of you.

What’s your story? Every marriage has one.

Some of our stories are unfolding beautifully, some have more bumps and twists than we would like. The good news is, all our marriage stories are still being written.

Maybe yours could use some spicing up, some help getting unstuck, or maybe you need a new plot line entirely. A Weekend Getaway, presented by FamilyLife Canada, can help you and your spouse write a great story together, God’s way.

It’s just one weekend, but it can take your relationship to a whole new level. Because when two people get on the same page…the sky is the limit!

“Three weeks ago we had a conflict that nearly ended our 10 year marriage. This weekend has given us enlightenment, hope, encouragement and strength to re-focus our marriage. We will be sharing our experiences with all who may benefit from our growth.”
husband, 10 years

“I didn’t know what to expect having never attended anything like this. I have been blown away by the wisdom, authenticity and truth that has been presented. Thank you for not talking from stereotypes or making us feel guilty if we aren’t the …Christian stereotypical wife/husband. Thank you for your honesty.”
wife, 6 years

What is a Weekend Getaway?

A Weekend Getaway is a marriage conference uniquely designed to enrich your relationship.

 

For most couples it’s a chance to reconnect, re-establish the foundation and rekindle romance.
For others, it’s a fresh start.
For some, it will be the weekend that saves a marriage.

Wherever you’re at in your relationship, it’s a weekend to remember. The atmosphere is relaxed and warm, even fun. You’ll hear from real couples doing real life together… God’s way. You’ll be given time to process what you’re learning. And together, you’ll make a plan for a marriage that lasts a lifetime.

“It created a safe space for us to intentionally explore who we are separately and together in ways and with structure that our daily lives simply do not allow or provide.”
husband, 10 years

You can expect to:

  • spend quality time focusing on each other and your relationship
  • sharpen your relationship skills
  • develop a plan to finish together
  • learn about God’s design for marriage and the power of “oneness”

Spend a refreshing weekend in Mont-Tremblant, hearing speakers sharing insights and perspectives on marriage with a group of 75 couples interspersed with time for individual couples to reflect on the presentations and enjoy the beautiful surroundings.
