2012 Marriage Retreat

 

Dear Friend,

These days it seems as if there isn’t a standard in the earth when it comes to marriages.

This sacred covenant between a man and a woman and God has been under attack in recent years. In today’s society we have divorced folks still under the same roof because of the expenses of moving out. There are less divorces occurring since 2005, but there are even less marriages occurring. Why is this? Could it be that people no longer see it as a requirement to commit?

To say the least, the standard to which God has called for marriages is under attack.

Whether you have a flourishing and prosperous marriage or your marriage could use some work, my wife and I would like to invite you and your spouse to our 2012 Marriage Retreat. No matter if you have been married for 30 years or just 6 months, marriage is something that has to be worked at daily.

What you will discover at this Marriage Retreat is:

  • the true meaning of the marriage covenant
  • practical steps that will take you from the dog house to the penthouse
  • the farmer’s secret to having a successful and prosperous marriage
  • God’s purpose for your marriage and your family
  • and much more…

The 2012 DPSM Marriage Retreat is designed for married couples like yourself to separate you from your everyday routine, to get back to the basics. We often find ourselves overwhelmed and overwork with life’s challenges – forgetting to nurture our relationship with God’s gift to us, our spouse.

This Marriage Retreat will provide you with information to enrich your lives and provide you with the precious time to reconnect with your spouse.

Retreat Location: Hilton Washington Dulles

This year we will be hosting the Marriage Retreat at the award-winning Hilton Washington Dulles Airport Hotel in Herndon, Virginia. You and your spouse will enjoy uncompromising accommodations and service of a luxury hotel featuring spacious guestrooms with Serenity Beds exhibiting the internationally-acclaimed Suite Dreams™ mattresses, and technologically-advanced rooms that WiFi and HDTV. Needless to say, you will enjoy your stay at the Hilton.

Why Should You Attend?

Each year millions of married couples spend hundreds and thousands of dollars on material things for Valentines day. Yet the divorce rate in America is hovering around 50%. This means that for every 1,000 people just about 5 will end up in a divorce.

The focus has to be less on material things and more on investing time with each other while learning how to effectively communicate.

I am proud to say that my wife and I have been married for over 30 years! We learned early on that investing in our marriage, through weekend retreats like this, and our relationship with God is key to a successful marriage.

My wife and I have been working diligently to offer you an experience of a lifetime that will not be easily forgotten. When you attend this retreat you will create lasting memories and go back home rested and fully equipped to have an even more successful and blessed marriage…I guarantee it.

You could do the same thing that you do every year on Valentines day or you and your spouse can enjoy a weekend retreat and rediscover each other’s love and God’s love for you.

Your investment for this weekend marriage retreat is just $235. This includes your hotel stay, retreat materials, a full course dinner Friday night, an all American breakfast Saturday morning, and knowledge of how to have a better marriage, which is truly priceless. The deadline for all payments is February 3rd.

Your investment in your marriage is extremely important and should not be taken lightly.

The unfailing love of God is so bountiful that it cannot be expressed in words. God Himself is Love. He gave His only Son for you so that you may have eternal life in heaven and have a full life here in the earth. God has more for you than your faith could ever imagine and more than your heart could ever hold.

Please join us at the 2012 DPSM Marriage Retreat to learn, to love, and to enjoy the many blessings of God!

*Note – You can also send payments for the amount of $235 made payable to DPSM to P.O. Box 6365, Woodbridge, VA 22195

PS> Pastor Dorothy and I thank our Heavenly Father for each and every one of you. May God’s richest blessing be upon the both of you. See you on Friday, February 10th.
