"A Few of My Friends Marriage Gathering 2026"
About this Event
“A Few of My Friends” invties you to be a part of something NEW with us — a powerful and refreshing Marriage Gathering designed to strengthen, restore, and impact married couples as they build their relationship God’s way. This gathering is for covenant couples who desire their marriage to reflect the heart of the King and His Kingdom. The Father has truly released His heart concerning this sacred time together as married couples. One thing the Lord said was:
“I want to pour Myself into My sons and daughters who are married for the next phase I have planned for them.”
Throughout this Gathering, couples will experience powerful teachings from Mark and Patricia Douglas along with Pastors Ron and Patricia North; honest conversations, a marriage panel, prayer, laughter, fellowship, and moments of deep connection. Couples will be encouraged to grow together in purpose, intimacy, faith, and commitment. Whether you are newly married, seasoned in marriage, overcoming challenges, or simply desiring to grow closer together, this Gathering will pour into your relationship and remind you that marriage carries a Kingdom assignment. Come prepared to participate!
We are planning a special Vow Renewal Ceremony and Communion service on Sunday morning. Each couple are to pray and create their own marriage vows (please keep at three lines). If you desire to dress up, feel free to do so. No pressure. There is also one additional thing the Lord has directed us to do on Sunday morning — we won’t reveal it just yet, but it will be a powerful finale and meaningful way to conclude the Gathering.
We have also secured a wonderful hotel rate for couples who would like to stay overnight, the hotel link will provided very soon!
