Willie & Cindy Batson speaking at one of the early Stronger Together workshops.

A chronic illness or long-term disability can be challenging to a marriage, even when two people have been deeply in love for decades. This online series will show you how loving your spouse in a chronic illness marriage can lead to new growth in your relationship. You will learn how you can handle the strong emotions that can invade your marriage, work together as a team in living out your marriage vows in sickness and in health, and refocus on what really matters in your marriage.

Having been his wife’s care-partner during her 27-year battle with a chronic illness, Willie Batson will lead this seminar from a perspective that communicates understanding and compassion.

This unique marriage enrichment series will be live-streamed over four Tuesday evenings beginning June 9, 2020 at 8:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on this website page (see below), on Facebook Live, and on YouTube Live.
