GENERAL INFORMATION for couples
ABOUT THE COURSE
“Growing Together” is a course written by Andrew Body, a Church of England clergyman. He was a counsellor for Relate for 30 years.
The course is relaxed and informal - the emphasis is on helping you and your partner explore together various aspects of married life, including communication, children and conflict. While there will be times when the whole group will share their thoughts together, you won't have to talk about anything with others which you'd rather keep to yourselves!
“Growing Together” is run as a Saturday morning or Sunday afternoon course lasting about 3 1/2 hours, and is open to anyone getting married either in Seal Church or elsewhere. It is held either in the church, church hall or vicarage, depending on numbers and temperature! I will confirm the venue nearer the date, but all venues are close together.
BOOKING A PLACE
If you would like to sign up for a course, please fill in the form here and return it to me electronically (or print it out and post it to me, Revd. Anne Le Bas, The Vicarage, Church Street, Seal, TN15 0AR.
I will confirm with you the date of your course once I have received your booking. We aim to have between 3 and 6/7 couples at each course. If there are not enough couples booked on "your" course it will be cancelled (I will make the decision 3-4 weeks before the course date,) and I will let you know if the course is not viable.
COST
The charge for the course is £5 per couple to cover heating and refreshments. There is a book to accompany the course which I try to remember to give couples marrying at Seal when they book - if I haven't or you are marrying elsewhere books will be available on the day (for couples marrying elsewhere the book costs £6.99, for couples marrying at Seal the book is free).
