In the spring of 2007, Julie and Frank Koehn participated in a PAIRS Essentials weekend class in their community at the Church of the Nazarene. They were both hopeful that they could strengthen their marriage. By the time the weekend was at an end, Julie and Frank were both very enthusiastic about what they were learning. They checked out the PAIRS website and made a few phone calls. Before they knew it they were signed up for an instructor training with PAIRS at the University of Central Florida's Summer Institute. When Frank and Julie returned, the Church of the Nazarene asked them to present PAIRS for LIFE and PAIRS Essentials to the congregation. Julie and Frank shared that as they work on the curriculum, they also strengthen their own marriage. They described it to be a win-win experience. It is their hope that they will have the privilege to offer the benefits of PAIRS to many others so that they too can experience the profound impact this curriculum has on marriages. |
