Pre-Marital Workshops

We have an established Pre-marital preparation class, which is conducted three times per year. This 10-week session covers all aspects of marriage.  This class is designed to educate and inform men and women how marriage should be conducted according to the word of God.

Attendees will learn everything there is to know about marriage, i.e., finances, sex, communication, blended families, etc. Our goal is to ensure that individuals desiring to get married, would fully understand all aspects of a Godly marriage.

In addition to Pre-marital workshops, we also have a very active Marriage Ministry at FCBC.

For additional information about any of these areas, please contact the Champion Counseling Center at 310.846.3253 or email Charline Stanley at cystanley@faithfamily.org.

There are times in life when stresses become difficult to deal with and our coping strategies become taxed. At that point, the wise individual seeks additional resources. Even intelligent, creative individuals are not exempt from difficult circumstances and decisions that can weigh one down. Using one-on-one confidential sessions, the CCC will help you gain a deeper understanding and give you strategies to overcome them.

Marriage & Couples Counseling

Marriage is one of the most important and satisfying relationships a couple can ever experience. And like any quality relationship, you must nurture it to grow. A successful marriage takes an investment of time, effort, and commitment. At CCC we offer workshops and counseling for couples seeking to achieve healthy, strong, and long-lasting unions.
