About the Scholarship Program

Adjusting to a new country brings both opportunity and stress,especially in marriage. Cultural shifts, financial pressure, isolation, and communication struggles can quickly lead to relational breakdowns. The Marriage Coaching Scholarship for Newcomers offers subsidized, faith-aligned, and culturally responsive coaching to immigrant couples who are newly married, newly settled, or navigating difficult transitions. Coaching is delivered by certified marriage mentors and focuses on:

  • Conflict management: communication.
  • Roles, values, and expectations in marriage.
  • Emotional safety & trust.
  • Cultural integration as a couple.
  • Future visioning and goal setting.
 
Why Sponsor a Couple?

Many newcomers arrive with limited resources and no extended support systems. Your sponsorship ensures they get the tools and encouragement needed to build a thriving marriage in their new home.

When you sponsor a couple, you are not just supporting two individuals—you are investing in generational stability, emotional wellness, and long-term community resilience.

What Sponsorship Covers
  • 8 Consecutive Saturdays of Thriving Relationships workshops.
  • Program materials & books.
  • Childcare
  • Meal
  • Support for mentorship during the 8 weeks program.
  • Support for 6 months of coaching & mentorship.
