This ministry is dedicated to providing a
Christian venue for fellowship, encouragement
and spiritual enrichment to the younger married
couples of Livingway Church.
Marriages today are under severe attack, and we
must do everything that we can to make certain
that the enemy does not destroy the sanctity of
marriage set forth in the Word of God. We do
that in a variety of ways through activities and
events such as breakfast buffets, cookouts,
progressive dinners and an annual seminar and
banquet.
“Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ
also loved the church, and gave himself for it;”
Ephesians 5:25
Participation in any of our scheduled activities
is certainly voluntary, but strongly
encouraged. Our events are typically scheduled
every two months on either a Friday or a
Saturday, depending on the time and length of
the activity.
Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ,
so let the wives be to their own husbands in
every thing.”
Ephesians 5:24
Y.M.C.A. is designed specifically for couples in
which either the husband and/or the wife is age
35 and younger. If one of you is older than 35
and the other is younger, you have the option of
choosing which married couples ministry you
would like to join. (The Married
Couples Ministry for couples age 35 and older is
called Couples In Christ or CCC.) The
activities and functions that are planned for
this group will be chosen with the younger
couple in mind. Then, once a year, the two
Married Couples Ministries will come together
for the annual seminar and banquet.
If you desire to be an active participant in our
events, watch for the announcements that will
give you all of the particular information and
ask you to sign up at the Information Desk in
the Front Lobby.
If you wish to be included in the planning
and/or hosting of activities, we encourage you
to contact the directors of the ministry for
more information. You can do that by calling
the Church Office and leaving your name and
phone number for them.
We admonish you not to allow the world to
dictate what a real marriage is. The only
authority on that subject is the One who created
man and wife and who instituted marriage
originally … God Himself! This ministry will
help you to fight back as a couple against the
enemy and celebrate anniversary after
anniversary of God’s goodness and keeping power! |
