Marriage Ministry Gatherings
The biblical purpose of marriage involves physical procreation and recreation, coupled with spiritual formation and illustration.
The focus of the Marriage Ministry at Ridgeway Alliance Church is to encourage, enrich, and empower marriages to thrive and fulfill its mission as a biblical metaphor designed to mirror God's relationship with us and Christ's love for the Church.
"For your Maker is your husband, the Lord Almighty is his name..." - Isa.54:5
"For as a young man marries a young woman...and as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride, so shall your God rejoice over you." - Isa.62:5
"Husbands, love your wife, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her...Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh. This mystery is profound, and I am saying that it refers to Christ and the church" - Eph.5:25,31-32
"Let us rejoice and exult and give him the glory, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and his Bride has made herself ready." - Rev.19:7
Married couples of all ages are invited to attend our monthly gatherings for food, fun, fellowship and relational formation. We typically meet at the church to share a meal together, be encouraged by relevant teaching followed by discussion and prayer.
Child care is typically provided and registration is required.
We are having a Fall Kick-Off BBQ on Friday, September 20, from 7-9pm. REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED! REGISTER HERE!
