Those who are planning to get married are encouraged to attend this course at least one year before the wedding date.  Please note that this course is only held once a year.

Details of Weekly Sessions

This course is based on and uses the materials of The Marriage Preparation Course (published by Alpha International), which was developed by Nicky and Sila Lee who are on staff at Holy Trinity Brompton, London, UK.  Besides viewing the video teaching by Nicky & Sila each week, there are also live speaker sessions, couple discussion time and sharing with other participants in small groups.

In addition, there is a couple assessment called the Prepare/Enrich Assessment that seeks to identify the couple’s strengths and areas for growth.  Each participating couple will have to complete the assessment online.  A designated counsellor will subsequently arrange to meet with each couple to review the results of their assessment.

DISCIPLESHIP & NURTURE

RECLAIMING JOHN WESLEY'S CLASS SYSTEM (Methodist Class and Bands)

John Wesley’s class meeting was a model for many present-day cell churches and ministries.  The principles and practices of the early class meeting still have relevance for us today.  This course will follow closely the book by Kevin Watson on “The Class Meeting: Reclaiming a Forgotten (and Essential) Small Group Experience.”  The course will look briefly at the history and theology of small groups.  More time will be given to the practices, which will include group discussion, as a way of practicing some of the principles.

Dates: 18, 25 March; 1, 8 April 2023

Time: 10am – 12noon

Venue: Chapel 

Cost: FOC

Instructor: Bishop Emeritus Wee Boon Hup
