Would you like to know how to stay in love beyond the honeymoon? Or maybe you're wondering ‘Will he ever pop the question?’
Would you give anything to get your three year old to go to bed and stay there…all night!

'At CCK, we consider marriage and family life to be vitally important, 'writes Wendy Virgo, wife of Terry and mother of five. 'Secure families are the backbone of a stable nation, while the breakdown of family life is both the cause and consequence of a broken society.
'Every day disturbing stories in the media assail us: suicide rates are high, people are depressed and lonely, and marriages are under pressure.
Strong families and healthy relationships
'People who become Christians begin to live God’s way, finding in Him the love and power that can change individuals and, consequently, change society. We were designed to be relational beings, and He has set out principles which help us to build happy and fulfilling marriages, and stable homes.
'CCK believes these principles can be applied to help you, whatever your personal situation - whether you are a Christian or not, whether you are a single mum, celebrating your silver wedding anniversary, or wondering what to do with difficult teenagers.
Courses and events
'To help you explore these principles, CCK runs marriage and parenting courses, and groups for young mothers. We also hold special days for men which include a hearty breakfast, talks and discussion groups; and a similar event for women – but with cake!
'Lots of people have found these events and courses have helped them to build foundations into their relationships, have given parents more confidence in loving and training their children, and have provided singles with all-important opportunities for fellowship in a safe environment.'
