In case you didn't notice all the hearts everywhere, Valentine's Day is coming up.
For us, our (almost) annual tradition for this particular holiday is attending the Weekend to Remember conference. With wonderful speakers, great discussion, a date night, and intentional activities for spouses to work on together, it has been a wonderful investment for our marriage. Each year, we have plenty of issues to work through, and we leave with our marriage much stronger as a result. It is such a great investment...and a lot of fun!
This year, we are considering attending a retreat that focuses on grieving the loss of a child. So, we will not be attending the Weekend to Remember this year. But, I think you should. :-)
If you're engaged, the communication that happens at this event will lay a great foundation for a great marriage. If you're newly married, it is a wonderful way to invest all that wedding money you received as gifts. If you've been married for a long time, it is a great way to spend some time intentionally focusing on your marriage and working through the issues that all marriages face. If you have remarried, the Weekend to Remember has assignments specific to your needs as well.
Again...I can't recommend it enough. Think about it. :-)
And if you're in New Mexico, the conference is up in Bernalillo this weekend.

I also wrote about the conference a few years ago here.
I have heard good things about The Art of Marriage event as well, put together by Family Life and hosted at churches.
