Families make up the community. Regardless of what your family looks like, we believe happy families and communities start with each individual’s relationship with God. Thus, relationships are our focus: relationships between spouses; relationships between parents and children; relationships between siblings; relationships which build our community; and, most importantly, our relationship with God.

We recognise that families face tremendous challenges in the world today and so our mission is to provide the tools to form and safeguard meaningful family relationships through communicating more effectively, deepening the marital experience, and assisting parents in their parenting journey.

“In family life, love is the oil that eases friction, the cement that binds closer together, and the music that brings harmony.” Friedrich Nietzsche
