Premarital Support

Congratulations on your recent engagement! It’s an exciting time of life and we would love to be invited in to support your marriage preparation.

To help marriages succeed, we believe it is essential to provide a couple with Biblical tools prior to their wedding day and we believe this is best done in relationship with a godly couple who has journeyed for several years ahead of you. For this reason, our premarital support is a mentor-based program. Life and years offer the wisdom of time-tested, gospel Truth along with many real life examples.

The first step is to attend a premarital orientation meeting. At these meetings, you will meet other couples in your same season of life, hear more about the heart behind this ministry along with the details of what we offer, and have an opportunity to formally sign up. Please fill out this form and choose a premarital orientation meeting to attend in the future.

Please note that the typical premarital process lasts at least three months, in most instances longer due to a waiting list and mentor availability. In extenuating circumstances, we do our best to accommodate couples and their needs. If you have questions, please reach out to marriage@crossroads-bible.org.

If you are looking to be married by a Crossroads Bible Church pastor, please complete this form. Many factors go into scheduling weddings with a pastor so we would love to know your preferences upfront. We cannot, however, promise the ability to fulfill them.

Please keep in mind if a Crossroads Bible Church pastor is marrying you, you will be required to fulfill pre-marital support through Crossroads. This process is strongly recommended at least six months prior to your wedding. In addition to that, you will have at least two premarital meetings with your pastor. This process helps the pastor and the community ensure that a couple understands God’s call on marriage and is ready to make the commitment needed to put God at the center of their relationship.

When a pastor commits to officiating your wedding, it is not a guarantee because our pastors bear the responsibility of marrying a couple who understands the covenant of marriage and are truly committed to reflect God through their relationship.
