"The pre-marriage course helped us to mature in our relationship and get ready for a life full of genuine commitment. We found it incredibly helpful not only to learn more about each other but also how we can work together to create a faith-filled home”

"It was really helpful and made us consider things that we hadn’t thought of, giving lots of helpful tools which we haven’t forgotten and still use now! We really enjoyed our time together doing the course and learning more about each other on a deeper level to prepare us for marriage”

Times
We open our home to run courses on Tuesday evenings when there are enough couples to form a group.
Structure
We can host up to four couples at a time in our home. We invite groups to join us for a meal on the first night of the course with the video course running between 7-9 pm. Each course has sections of video complemented by breakout times of discussions between couples. No one is expected to share anything. We will consider running a pre-marriage course for just one couple.
Course lengths
The Marriage Course runs for 7 weeks
The Pre- Marriage Course runs for 5 weeks
The Parenting Course runs for 8 weeks
Cost
We operate on a donation-only basis. There is absolutely no pressure to contribute as we want all to feel able to attend.
Affiliation
Willow Barn is affiliated with Mount Zion Baptist Church in Cardigan. The courses we run have a Christian ethos, but are by no means exclusively for Christians - the content is broadly accessible.
