They represent the resigned acceptance that death is the final word, and that the "laws of the grave" are the only laws that truly matter.

Last weekend, we were hosted by our friends at Anglican Church of the Redeemer, Franklin, MA (thank you Rev. Dan and Lisa Sylvia!) We dove in with a pilot group of couples. It is our hope to bring this workshop and/or the entire marriage conference to you one day!
