Tickets on sale for "Ultimate Date Night Event" Sept. 27 at Ebenezer Mennonite
An “Ultimate Date Night Event,” takes place for couples at 6:30 p.m., Saturday, Sept. 27, at Ebenezer Mennonite Church, 8905 Columbus Grove Road, Bluffton, according to Dale Seefeldt, family pastor.
The program will be presented by Jay and Laura Laffoon, authors of several books and DVDs, billed as “marriage edu-tainers,” who place their real marriage of almost 30 years on display. Their weekly online talk show Jay & Laura TV offers tips on connecting as a couple and a family. The Laffoons have two children and live in Michigan.
“If you’re like most couples, you and your spouse probably stood at the altar, hearts and minds giddy with expectation of the journey ahead. But, somewhere along the line, the romantic "Street Car Named Desire" got derailed by the big "Locomotive Named Reality,” said Jay.
The Laffoons comedy-infused event help couples learn how to create and regularly celebrate a marriage while exploring the realities that everyday life brings to the relationship.
Tickets, $10 each, are available online at ebenezermennonite.org and at the church office, 419-358-8588.
Laura said, “Over our 30 years of marriage, there have been days I can remember when I got married and where I got married, but for the life of me, I can't remember why I got married!"
Their humorous transparency at Ultimate Date Night events offers couples permission to discover and bring laughter into their marriage as they enjoy a connecting experience with one another.
