Reigniting the dream: FamilyLife’s Weekend to Remember® empowers couples to thrive through life’s daily challenges
‘Whether you’re sending up an SOS for marital rescue or looking to foster an already flourishing connection, Weekend to Remember is your best next step toward being, and staying, one’
ORLANDO — Marriage is the bedrock of a strong family unit. Unfortunately, the state of American marriage is in decline. In 2024, U.S. adults were less likely to be married than at almost any point in history. Nearly half of all American marriages end in divorce, with many citing a loss of love, respect and trust as the root of their marital issues. What can a couple do to reignite their passion and stop the demise of their marriage?
FamilyLife exists to help families grow together and impact their own communities through carefully curated resources, retreats and more. FamilyLife’s Weekend to Remember® is a two-and-a-half-day marriage getaway designed to help couples nurture and grow their relationship based on God’s design. Participants will listen to transparent, relatable and engaging talks by married couples who teach practical, biblically centered concepts, engage in alone time through one-on-one couples projects, and leave the weekend with the tools needed to continue to grow in communication and intimacy.
“When couples strengthen their marriage, their whole family feels the impact,” said FamilyLife President Luke Middendorf. “Weekend to Remember helps husbands and wives reconnect and rebuild their relationship around God’s design and grace.”
At the Weekend to Remember marriage getaway, couples will find lifetime tools to strengthen their relationship (no matter how firm or fragile), hear engaging talks from marriage experts, and get alone with their spouse in guided, practical application projects. With 75 locations across the country and over 1.5 million couples made stronger, FamilyLife’s Weekend to Remember promises 100% satisfaction for couples looking to make a positive impact on their marriage.
“No marriage is static. Each day, each choice — you’re either moving closer together, toward oneness… or drifting farther apart. Whether you’re sending up an SOS for marital rescue or looking to foster an already flourishing connection, Weekend to Remember is your best next step toward being and staying one,” concluded Middendorf.
Previous attendees often praise the event:
- “We had breakthroughs in our marriage I never thought possible.”
- “A life-changing experience that will benefit our marriage and kids.”
- “This gave us tools to love one another on a deeper level.”
- “After 21 years of marriage, we are starting new and I got my best friend back.”
