So invest in your marriage! \nIt can be easy to let yourself grow complacent in your marriage\, but a healthy\, thriving\, God-honoring marriage requires constant effort and investment from both spouses. That’s why we’re excited to announce our upcoming marriage conference on Friday\, April 26 at 6:30pm!

With guest speakers Steve and Debbie Wilson\, you’ll gain insights into improving communication\, managing conflict\, keeping romance alive\, meeting each other’s needs\, and more. You’ll be reminded why you said “I do” in the first place and leave feeling encouraged and equipped to continue building an enduring\, fulfilling marriage. The cost is just $20 per person\, and all married couples are welcome. Marriage matters—let’s choose to invest in it! \nRegistration is by individual\, not couple: each spouse should register separately. \nREGISTER HERE\nREGISTER YOUR CHILDREN FOR PLAY & LEARN HERE\nSteve and Debbie Wilson \n\nSteve and Debbie Wilson’s hearts beat for stronger\, healthier marriages. In 1990\, their marriage fell apart. With God’s intervention and promise\, “that what He began\, he will complete\,” (Philippians 1:6)\, they worked their way back stronger than ever. After four years of working towards a great marriage\, God called them to begin sharing what He had done in their lives and how He could help every marriage. Thus they began teaching marriage conferences around the nation.\n\nSteve and Debbie have been married 45 years. Steve has his Master’s in Marriage and Family Counseling\, and Debbie has her BA in Psychology. They have three grown children\, two daughters-in-law\, a son-in-law\, and six incredible grandchildren.

Each year\, the president signs a proclamation\, encouraging all Americans to pray on this day. \n“For You are my lamp\, LORD; and the LORD illuminates my darkness. For by You I can run at a troop of warriors; by my God I can leap over a wall. As for God\, His way is blameless; the word of the LORD is refined; He is a shield to all who take refuge in Him.” –2 Samuel 22:29–31 URL:https://firstdallas.org/event/national-day-of-prayer/2024-05-02/ LOCATION:Truett Chapel CATEGORIES:Churchwide ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://firstdallas.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/NatlDayOfPrayer2024_h.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20240503T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20240503T123000 DTSTAMP:20260404T011844 CREATED:20210913T153144Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240625T154228Z UID:793-1714730400-1714739400@firstdallas.org SUMMARY:First Friday DESCRIPTION:First Friday is a monthly gathering of moms with children from birth to sixth grade for refreshing support and encouragement while on the journey of motherhood.
