It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.”

We ask that you help us to prioritize our marriages above all else and invest our time, energy, and resources in building strong and healthy relationships with our spouses.
