This is a world-class evening of fun, laughter and entertainment! It will start with a very nice Valentine’s theme dinner at 6:30pm sharp! If you have reservations to attend the dinner please be there early!
Though the dinner is filled, there is still plenty of room for anyone who wants to come join us for the program which starts at 7:30pm in the sanctuary!
The Date Night Challenge, supported by Focus on the Family, is a two-hour event featuring:
via webcast. During this event, the Smalley’s will explain the power of dating your mate and encourage couples to take the “Date Night Challenge”: go on three dates in three weeks.
This is part of a national “date night movement” (Marriage Week is February 7-14 every year) which is a collaborative effort to encourage many to strengthen individual marriages, reduce the divorce rate, and build stronger marriages!
Focus on the Family will then provide free, downloadable materials and content for their next two dates. Then, each month for the next year, couples can download a new, free date night guide that provides content and ideas for their dates.

About Love & Respect Ministries
What is Love and Respect? We believe love best motivates a woman and respect most powerfully motivates a man. Research reveals that during marital conflict a husband most often reacts when feeling disrespected and a wife reacts when feeling unloved. We asked 7,000 people this question: when you are in a conflict with your spouse or significant other, do you feel unloved or disrespected…83% of the men said “disrespected”, 72% of the women said, “unloved.” Though we all need love and respect equally, the felt need differs during conflict, and this difference is as different as pink is from blue! Resources will be provided for the married, divorced, separated, dating and single. Men and women will learn how to resolve conflict, dealing with the negative reactions (the crazy cycle). They will also learn how to motivate each other by meeting each other’s need (the energizing cycle). Even those who feel hopeless in their relationships will gain understanding on how to handle an indifferent or unresponsive partner (the rewarded cycle). Each cycle centers on two concepts: love and respect. These two words surface in social research and the Bible (Ephesians 5:33) as the two key ingredients for a successful marriage. From research, those attending the Love and Respect conference, watching the Love and Respect DVD in small groups, or reading the Love and Respect resources, are experiencing understanding, forgiveness, reconciliation, change, and hope.

We want you to know that your Ustick Baptist Church leadership is committed to strengthening marriages and supporting families of our church! Watch for registration details in the church bulletins coming soon!

Merry CHRISTMAS and Happy New Year!
