THE BLACK MARRIAGE MOVEMENT
As a Married couple, there are four seasons we will go in and out of until death do you part. No matter the season we are in, we must nurture and maintain our marriage. Take time to do fun things together that each spouse can enjoy, celebrate your love, and take time to skill-build or learn something new together that will enhance or help your marriage thrive. No marriage is perfect, even if it looks like it on the outside! The grass is not greener on the other side. Stand Strong for YOUR marriage and take time to water your own grass and it will become greener and more healthier. #BlackMarriageStandingStrong
Our mission is to decrease the divorce rate in the black community by promoting and strengthening *African American/Black Marriages through education, recreation and celebration.
ENGAGE & STAND STRONG!
Marriage Maintenance
We must be Life Long Learners when it comes to our marriage. Read a book, practice a skill, read an article together, go to a workshop, etc. Take time to gather educational tidbits that you can use to stimulate and challenge you and your spouse to be the best you can be for the sake of the marriage. Have fun!
Recreate and Celebrate
Take time to have fun with your spouse and celebrate Marriage! There are so many fun activities you could do together. Make sure to share each other interests and what the other considers fun. One fun idea is to join other black married couples at the Annual Seattle Fall Ball!
