A realtor for nearly 30 years, Jim Cicchese recently signed on with Compass Real Estate in Westlake Village, California. As a person of faith, Jim Cicchese maintains membership with Calvary Community Church in Westlake Village.
Calvary provides several ministries to married couples. Foremost among these is Marriage Matters: The Intentional Marriage Workshops, which meet the first and third Sundays of each month from 9 to 10:15 a.m.
Facilitated by the Marriage Matters leadership team, the workshops focus on the work and attention required for a good marriage. Guest speakers offer guidance for enriching the relationship on a daily basis. The series is open to engaged and married couples of all ages and experience. Participants who are unable to attend all sessions are still welcome. The church provides childcare.
The Marriage Prep program, offered three times annually, helps engaged persons prepare for the next step. For couples experiencing difficulties, Calvary has started a mentoring program, which develops connections with other couples that can offer support.
Additionally, the church regularly sponsors a date night, which allows couples to enjoy some private time while someone attends to their children.
