Relationships face numerous challenges as they progress. According to research, 50% of all marriages end in divorce. However, that doesn’t cover all relationships. What about the relationships that end with someone you didn’t marry? Would you like to change those numbers and increase your chances of a successful relationship or marriage? The answer should be yes, and this is why we have developed and invested in a faith-based relationship class called “Skills for Every Stage” for those in the Central Savannah River Area. This class is designed to equip couples with the skills to enhance their relationship.

According to research, people who attend a relationship class have a 70% greater chance of having a successful relationship. Think about this: who taught you how to be in a relationship? If you are like me, no one. I had to learn it on the fly.

In this welcoming space, our Skills For Every Stage class, draws on cherished Christian principles to help you explore not only what love is, but also how to love. Together, we’ll navigate conflicts with grace and compassion, providing tools on how to solve conflicts that open the door to effective communication.

Additionally, we will gain insight into how fear can influence our instincts, which leads to less thinking and more reacting.
