Franklin Avenue Baptist Church in New Orleans will sail on a marriage retreat cruise in last August.

Franklin Avenue Baptist hosting marriage retreat cruise

June 22, 2016

The first-ever marriage retreat cruise hosted by Franklin Avenue Baptist Church is fast approaching.

Scheduled for Aug. 25-29, the One Love Cruise will feature dynamic marriage enrichment sessions, men’s and women’s breakout discussions, fun and fellowship. Registration closes 30 days before departure.

For the past 26 years, the church has hosted marriage retreats. They have grown from 50 couples when they first started to more than 400 during it most recent one.

Already, 300 of the 450 available cabins the church has reserved have been booked. The Carnival cruise will leave from New Orleans for Cozumel.

Gary Mack Sr., pastor of Family Life at Franklin Avenue Baptist, said the theme is One Love: one man, one woman, for one lifetime.

“The retreat is a great opportunity for a husband and wife to spend time learning what it takes to have a marriage that last a lifetime,” he said. “Our prayer is that couples will experience renewal, relaxation, and romance.”
