The Enjoy Your Marriage Workshop inspires couples to initiate… Show more positive change in their marriage. You will leave with a renewed sense of hope, inspiration and encouragement!
Greg & Julie Alexander are co-Founders of The Alexander House, a Catholic lay-apostolate dedicated to proclaiming the beauty, goodness and truth of God's plan for marriage. The Alexanders had concluded that divorce was the only way out of what they thought was a lifeless, loveless marriage. Basing their life together on the things society says are important took them spiraling downward until they literally hit rock bottom. Quite unexpectedly, a faithful priest guided them back to the truths of the Church, and they were able to restore the love they once had for each other. The Alexanders host a weekly radio show on the Guadalupe Radio Network called Made for Each Other, Marriage 911 is their first book and it was released last fall, and their 3rd installment of the Marriage Works in Christ series is currently airing on Ewtn. The Enjoy Your Marriage Workshop focuses on inspiring couples to experience the joy in marriage that God intended. Church teaching and scripture coupled with the Alexander s personal life experience are used to present information in this fun, educational and fact filled workshop.
