3 Strands Marriage Ministry
"Making marriages stronger, and friendships deeper."
3 Strands gets is name from Ecclesiastes 4:12. “Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.”
The goal of our 3 Strands Marriage Ministry is to strengthen marriages within the body of Christ using biblical principles as our guide. We stress fellowship with each other as husband and wife, but also between couples. 3 Strands provides a fun and safe environment to listen and share common experiences that will help us understand our spouses and marriages a little better.
The 3 Strands Marriage Ministry...
- Nurtures authentic marriage relationships

- Empowers couples to serve Christ through their marriage
- Creates an atmosphere of unconditional love
- Equips both strong and struggling couples
- Encourages couples to be honest, open, and real.

Marriage Retreat
Designed as a time to get away from one’s job(s), children, and the hustle and bustle of life, 3 Strands hosts a marriage retreat with the sole purpose of building your marriage relationship. Quality teaching, connecting with other couples, spiritual growth as individuals and as a couple, and a fun time together highlight this time away.
This years retreat was a great success! Thanks to all who attended and made it a memorable experience.
"I laughed harder than I have in years. The Truely Wed Game was truely a riot. My face and sides hurt from laughing so hard."
"The time spent here has given new life to our marriage. I realize now that we're not alone in our problems, and that alone has given us new hope that we can get through this."
Be sure to join us at our next retreat. Become part of the fun, and experience new vitality in your relationship with your spouse.
Valentine’s Event
Held in February, the Valentine’s event is for adult couples, usually held at the church, that provides a night of fun and fellowship. Childcare will be provided onsite to make it convenient for those who need it.
Troubled Times?
If your marriage is rocky, having a hard time communicating, or just not sure where to go next, we would love to dialogue with you how to best help you. Many times our LIFE Group is a great place to plug in; but sometimes couples are in need of more than that so please do not hesitate to ask!
