More Date Night Ideas
Together we will explore various topics including belonging, expectations, the need for community, couples works of mercy and living as missionary disciples. Each date night will include a video from a dynamic couple, reflection questions and recommended resources. The feel will be a combination of date night/parish mission/retreat/small group. Take this time to renew your marriage and build new relationships with other couples.

Working at home with kids around can put stress on any marriage.Here are 10 creative ways to destress and stay connected as a couple:
- Find time to talk daily (early morning or late at night): Talk about how things are going? What's stressing you? What do you need from your beloved? How can you support your beloved (dishes, laundry, making dinner)?
- Go through a devotional together like Beloved on Formed. Click HERE for 40 days free.
- Late Night Date: Cook their favorite dinner (or carry out), get a bottle of wine, rent a movie you saw together before you were married, and enjoy. Date ideas here.
- Get outdoors together: Go on a walk in the neighborhood or some other physical activity that you both enjoy.
- Take a moment to pray together and for each other (couple prayer ideas here).
- Work Together on a Project: Make a plan together, plant a garden, paint a room, organize the garage. Take something old & make it new, give it life.
- Go through your wedding album & reminisce (with or without your kids).
- Start a marriage dream list (short & long term) of what you want to do and where you want to go.
- Write your spouse a letter: express your love, tell them why you are grateful for them in your life, remind them of past memories, affirm them as your partner.
- Forgive that Grudge: Talk with your spouse, forgive them and move on. If you always have to be right, then you are married to a looser.
