First Baptist Church Marriage Retreat 2026

Peace and Joy to you!

Welcome to our Church Married Couples Retreat Registration.

We are delighted and grateful that you are considering joining us for our 2026 Marriage Retreat. 2026 will be our fifth retreat, and we are excited with great anticipation of what God will do in the lives of the couples joining us this time. Our prayer is that you invest in yourself and each other. Set the time and finances aside to join us in Scottsdale, AZ. We are trusting God for 150 couples because we believe that this weekend will strengthen marriages, inspire new memories, and help us grow in love and faith.

Our first retreat was in 2015 with five couples (Phoenix). Our second retreat was in the entertaining city of Las Vegas with 25 couples. Our third retreat was by far our largest (Scottsdale). We had over 40 couples in attendance, and a soul was added to the Christian Family. Our last retreat was on sea aboard the Carnival Firenze (Ensenada & /Cabo San Lucas). There were a total of 16 couples who launched out in the deep with us. The Lord has been faithful over the years as we have tackled several themes, such as How to Communicate, Five Love Languages, and “For Better or For Worse, I Ain’t Going Nowhere”.

This special weekend in July 2026 will be dedicated to deepening our commitment with our spouses and with God as we unpack this year's theme - “For Richer, For Poorer, In Sickness & In Health, I Ain’t Going Nowhere!” Whether you’ve been married for a few months or many decades, this retreat is designed to meet you where you are, as well as offer you time for renewal, reflection, relaxation, reconnection, and spiritual growth in a supportive and joyful community.

Throughout our time together, you’ll have the opportunity to participate in faith-filled sessions, engaging workshops, meaningful conversations with other couples, and to rediscover the love that brought you together. Have the tough conversations, don’t shy away from them. Along with spiritual enrichment, you’ll enjoy fellowship, fun activities, resort accommodations, amenities, and the serene beauty of the Arizona desert. Feel free to tell your married friends, family, and church members. They are invited too!

Please know that we value you and your marriage, and we are honored to support you on your marital journey. If you should have any questions and/or concerns regarding our past retreats or our upcoming retreat, please do not hesitate to reach out to us directly. Our contact information is listed below.

Can’t wait to see you in Scottsdale at the Omni! We are praying for you. Please pray for us!
