Marriage Enrichment Activities

• St. Bernard’s Marriage Apostolate — Marriage Enrichment Activities

This winter we’re offering two opportunities for couples to reconnect and be renewed.

1.  Love & Respect — 10-Week Zoom Video Study

Thursdays, 7:00 PM (AST) • Jan 8 – Mar 12, 2026,

Facilitators: Joe & Deb D’Ettore

Based on Dr. Emerson Eggerichs’ bestselling program, Love & Respect unpacks the biblical insight of Ephesians 5:33, that she most deeply desires love and he most deeply needs respect, and gives practical tools to improve communication, break the “crazy cycle,” and build an “energizing cycle” of grace at home.

• Registration: $10/couple (includes electronic workbook + Zoom invite)
• Miss a night? Sessions are recorded so you can catch up later.
