Local Marriage Celebration was a Success!

On Friday March 19th, the Education Division of the Women's Care Center hosted an unique event...A Marriage Celebration.

It was an event which highlighted couples who have struggled yet who are happily married today. It was an event in which the community of Erie could be encouraged and inspired by testimonies of love and commitment. It was an event which gave hope to young people who had never seen a happy marriage.

And I've got good news! The local event was a success!! Here are a few pictures from the evening...


Here Brenda Newport, the Executive Director of the WCC, is welcoming everyone

Our faith parnters supported the event by sponsoring tables

We had lots of yumming food

And yes, lots of dessert!



We had several testimonies from married couples and even singles about the value of marriage. Here a life story followed by a dance is shared, while our staff member Stephanie Lindenberger (right) offers moral support.

The event was such a success that we hope to offer it in the years to come. Thanks to everyone for their support!
