A welcome from your Couples Ministry leaders

We cannot wait to welcome you to Crete

Welcome to INTO ME SEE. We have set these few days apart for you to slow down, reconnect and enjoy one another away from the normal pace of life. Our prayer is that as we learn, worship, talk, laugh and experience Crete together, every couple will leave strengthened, refreshed and more intentional about the life you are building together. We are looking forward to sharing these days with you. With love, Pastor Temi & Pastor Abi New Wine Couples Ministry
