Pre-Marriage Seminar
Samaritan Center provides a small group, four-session seminar for couples preparing for marriage. It focuses on the understandings and relationship skills that enhance life-long commitment and growth.
Additionally, we provide preparation for marriage or remarriage with individual therapists. These are designed either to stand alone or to supplement counseling that couples may receive from their pastor.
