“It is possible to love someone without showing respect for him or her. The evidence of respect is your behavior and speech toward your spouse.”
“We started Graceful Marriage because we believe no couple should have to figure it out alone. Every retreat is our invitation to step away together, invest in your covenant, and leave with real tools and real hope.”
— ELDER/CHAPLAIN WILLIE NORDELUS & MINISTER DR. DEMETRICE NORDELUS
Building Hope. Healing Marriages.
