Marriage Coaching Ministry | Help for Your Marriage

Are you facing challenges in your marriage, or simply looking for a refresher? The Office of Marriage, Family, & Life, Archdiocese of Detroit is here to help.

Whether you need a tune-up, feel stalled, or are in a downward spiral, you don’t have to settle for less than the fullness God intends for your marriage. We offer confidential, no-cost support through our Marriage Coaching Ministry.

What is Marriage Coaching?

Marriage Coaching is a couple-to-couple mentoring program designed to help you live out God’s plan for marriage. Our trained Coaching Couples provide practical tools and spiritual guidance to strengthen your relationship.

Important: Coaching is NOT counseling. It is not therapy or psychology. Instead, we walk alongside you, helping you implement a better way to live out your marriage at home.
