We want to sign up for premarital mentoring

Step One | Fill out Bridge premarital registration form

Let’s get a date penciled in and get things started by filling out the Bridge premarital registration form. Once you have completed the registration form, someone from our marriage team will contact you to discuss dates.

***You will receive an email with more information regarding your premarital pastoral interview and premarital mentoring. In this email, you will find instructions on completing a SYMBIS Assessment and scheduling a time to meet with your pastor.

Step Two | Pastoral Interview

During your interview, your pastor will provide spiritual guidance and wisdom to help you move forward.

Some key aspects of the conversation will include (but not be limited to):

Your faith story
Your decision to get engaged
Your spiritual, emotional, and physical intimacy
Your results from your SYMBIS assessment

Your pastor will connect you with a premarital mentor couple.
