Run a Course in your community

A global crisis in the breakdown of family and married life presents a huge need – and a huge opportunity. In running The Marriage Course for couples in your parish and community, you can create a space that offers couples practical tools to help them build a strong marriage. 

PREVIEW EPISODE 1

Step 1: Plan it

Speak to your church leader or organisation about where and when your course could be run, then simply sign up online using Alpha’s Course Builder website to run the course in person or online. If you don’t know who or where to get started. Contact us through the form below. 

Step 2: Prepare for it

Enjoy the user-friendly training resources that will be provided to you through the Course Builder website and familiarise yourself with The Marriage Course videos and materials to help you feel completely confident running the course! 

Step 3: Invite guests

Invite couples to attend and prepare each session as a special “date night” if you are running the course in person – dreaming up food, candles or romantic lighting, and how you will seat your couples.

What is Course Builder?

The Course Builder gives you access to all materials, training and resources related to running The Marriage Course and The Pre-Marriage Course, including the option to download the latest series.
