The guest presenters were Pastor Buford ("Buddy") and Carmen<br />Griffith, Directors of the Family Life Department of the Southwestern<br />Union in Texas. Both having Master's degrees in counseling, this is their<br />second consecutive year as presenters for the Marriage Connections<br />weekend retreat. Twenty-five couples attended from a good cross section<br />of a variety of geographical locations (Indiana, Ohio, Michigan) and a<br />variety of cultures and a variety of religious backgrounds. The program<br />concluded Sunday at 11:00 a.m. with a re-marriage commitment service.<br /> The attached picture is of the couples who attended the<br />conference as well as the presenters.<br /> We invite those who attended the conference to blog their<br />experience.<br /> We are eagerly looking forward to another Marriage Connections<br />next year and invite you to check back at this website periodically for<br />more information as it becomes available. If you wish to inquire about<br />Marriage Connections via phone, you can give your contact information to<br />the web-master or call 517.896-7842, and one of our host couples will get<br />back in touch with you.<br />Robert Benson<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6418096237511975511-1560947551444428842?l=nbmarriage.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>irsisszhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09704125585036197493noreply@blogger.com1
