The SYMBIS and SYMBIS II (Saving Your Second Marriage Before it Starts)
Assessments give you a personalized road map to establishing lifelong love
and making your marriage everything it was meant to be.
Marriage prep with SYMBIS is a requirement for all weddings officiated by a
Community of Faith pastor.
SYMBIS classes are regularly offered three times each year by
Community of Faith.
•Session one is January-March. Register by January 1st.
•Session two is May-July. Register by May 1st.
•Session three is Sept.-Nov. Register by Sept. 1st
SYMBIS begins with an online assessment followed by each participating couple meeting one time with a COF Marriage Mentoring couple, for an initial review of their assessment. This initial review is scheduled after the assessment is completed, about two weeks prior to the first scheduled group class and books and workbooks are handed out at this time.
Following initial assessment review, group classes meet every other week for a total of four classes for SYMBIS I and five classes for SYMBIS II. Each class session is usually 60-90 minutes and most often classes meet on Sunday evenings. However, meeting times and days, and locations at COF facilities vary depending on the demographics for each class.
Assessment cost is $35/per couple, payable online at time of assessment. Cost for books and materials is $25/ couple. Payable to COF at time of the
initial review with your mentoring couple.
All Marriage Mentoring couples at COF are trained and certified to Facilitate
the SYMBIS programs.
