Miracle Life Family Church offers members premarital counselling and the opportunity to be wed in the church.

Our premarital counselling team is ready to guide engaged couples into a Christ-centered relationship, walking beside them and offering resources in preparation for what lies ahead. The team leads a ten-week premarital counselling class and one-on-one counselling sessions that run concurrently with the classes and all these are mandatory for all couples planning to be married by Miracle Life pastors.

The ten-week class helps engaged couples explore God’s design for marriage. This interactive course is offered three times a year and utilises personal assessments as well as couple and group interaction.
