From Bishop Maranto:
Greetings,
As you may be aware, the Relief Society is sponsoring a marriage retreat September 11 - 12 at Lake Houston State Park for all adult members of the ward. This retreat is part of the ward effort to strengthen families. I encourage every couple to attend. We hope you will camp out with us if you are able. If not, come out Friday night and return Saturday morning for the rest of the workshops.

One of the workshops will address the topic of Intimacy in a Celestial Marriage. In this workshop we will discuss sexuality from an LDS perspective and explore physical intimacy as a divinely appointed expression of love.. To help me prepare for this workshop, please click the link below and provide any questions you would like to address in the workshop. Think in terms of "What have you always wanted to ask your bishop about sex, but were too afraid to ask?" Your responses will help me tailor the discussion to your needs. The survey is completely anonymous.
