All assessments for purchase are provided at our cost. 100% of all monies go back into From the Well Ministries. Pat and Andee do not take a salary. Fees are designated to cover direct ministry expenses, to include materials, supplies, partial scholarships for couples and churches in need, and continuing education.

SYMBIS Post-Certification. $200 1 Day – 8 hours.
This guidance is only available for couples who have previously been certified with the Saving Your Marriage Before It Starts (SYMBIS) Assessment course, offered by Drs. Les and Leslie Parrott; it is not intended to provide certification training of any sort. What we can offer, however, is our experience and feedback to help “jump start” your marriage emphasis initiative. We bring years of experience, training, certification, and resources to those being called to help marriages within your church body. During our sessions, we help assess your churches’ marriage ministry opportunities to determine how the pre-marriage SYMBIS could be best incorporated into your church dynamic. In most cases, the 8-week SYMBIS material is best administered once a week, one-on-one between a certified couple and the pre-married couple. However, in some larger churches, certified SYMBIS couples have chosen to facilitate group classes for multiple couples at once. You can also consider including an apprentice couple for training purposes. We address class planning, execution logistics, and review chapter highlights. Additionally, we meet with your key couples and answer any questions they may have based on our familiarity with the material, class start up challenges, and classroom dynamics.
Materials: SYMBIS textbook, and His and Her workbooks which were purchased during your certification training. Additionally, bring your Individual Couple Assessment to review.

of participant commitment. We address class planning, execution logistics, and review chapter highlights. Additionally,
we meet with your key couples and answer any questions they may have based on
our familiarity with the material. We bring years of experience,

Re|Engage Program
and Materials are available through Watermark Church, Dallas Tx.
Re|Engage is for biblical marriages, between one man and one woman, in any and
all conditions. Every marriage will benefit, whether couples are struggling to
get along, the marriage seems broken or stuck, or they simply want to grow
closer together relationally. All Re|Engage churches cover the same curriculum
in a Closed Group format, sharing stories of grace and healing through Jesus
Christ. Because of size or location, some churches may offer Re|Engage at
particular times of the year, but the key elements of Re|Engage are consistent
between all churches.
We have
facilitated Re|Engage multiple times in church settings as well as assisted lead
couples learning how to facilitate their own groups. We can assist with jump
starting this beneficial initiative in your church body. For more information
