Beth Ariel’s Couple’s Fellowship is designed to provide support and encouragement to our couples. There are many “stressors” in this insanely fast-paced 21st-century life and couples need all the help that can get. Through realistic, biblically-based teaching and honest and open sharing, our Couples’ Ministry addresses the needs that couples often face — from children and adolescent issues to dealing with anger and interpersonal conflict. In addition to such universal issues, since we are a Messianic congregation, we also deal with the unique issues that often crop up among “inter-married” (Jewish/non-Jewish) couples, e.g., “How do we raise the kids?” “What about bar- and bat-mitzvah?” “What do we do about the holy days?” We encourage our couples to become a part of this vital and very much-needed ministry — to learn and to share from their experiences.
