Singles at the Crossroads

 

Do your wonder what the Chaplain and Family Readiness Offices have been doing for our Single Service Members lately? 

 

Building Strong Singles Retreats are weekend training events for unmarried Army and Air National Guard Service Members. The training focuses on developing healthy personal and relational habits. These life skills help attendees navigate through times of transition in our lives. Transitions might include but are not limited to: re-deployment, the beginning/ending of key relationships, or simply an upcoming significant life decision.

 

These retreats are fun and interactive - and a great way to meet new friends!  They are definitely not "death by power point."

Strong Bonds Marriage Retreats offer military couples a fun and refreshing time to reconnect with the love of your life! They are not intended to be a substitute for marital counseling, nor is this group therapy. Instead you will gain practical information based on world class curriculums developed from years of research. As a couple you will practice relationship-building skills, as well as share intimate moments.

PREP is one of the most comprehensive and well respected marriage enhancement programs in the world.  PREP has been proven so effective it has been featured on "20/20", "48 Hours" and "Oprah". It is a skills based curriculum designed to help partners say what they need to say, get to the hear of the problem, and increase their connection with one another.

PREP teaches couples effective communication skills and how to avoid the communication danger signs that can lead to marital discord.

The Links Program teaches couples the skills they need to endure lasting love. It shows couples how to regularly revitalize the dynamic links of their marriage with the Relationship Attachment Model. This model illustrates how couples grow closer by meeting one another's needs for an open, trusting and fulfilling relationship.

LINKS addresses the following goals:

Relentlessly Pursuing Intimacy: Deeply Knowing Your Partner •

Cultivating Trust: Maintaining a Positive Opinion of Your Partner •

Reciprocally Meeting Needs: The Basis of a Happy Marriage •

Resiliently Charting Your Course: Resilience through Crisis •

Romantically Renewing Your Union: Sexual Intimacy •

Laugh Your Way to a Better Marriage Viva La Difference! Gain fresh insight to why men and women see life so differently. You will laugh your way through this retreat with Mark Gungor's video based messages. The great content and unique approach has yielded once of the highest success rates in the country!

You are encouraged to attend PREP before LINKS but if scheduling conflicts exist, either retreat would be a great opportunity for you and your spouse.

Some Army and Air National Guard units or wings may allow you to attend in lieu of drill. Check with your unit or wing to coordinate this arrangement.
