What is the cost?
One of the first questions that a couple often asks is the cost to spend a week at the Ravines and receive this level of professional counseling. Through generous support and many volunteers that help with the on-going needs of the home and property, we have been able to keep the total cost for counseling, all meals, accommodations and materials at $2500.
When a couple desires to attend the Ravines, we encourage them to go through the following steps for financial payment:
- 1. Client Commitment: a couple prayerfully considers how they can personally pay for their Couples Counseling Intensive. For most couples, they will make every effort to cover the entire amount personally. Payment plans can also be considered for couples with approval of the Executive Director of the Ravines.
- 2. Friends and Family Commitment: a couple that may need help in covering their financial needs is encouraged to seek support from their family and friends. Many couples have found this support to be more than just financial. Client couples are also blessed by the prayer support they receive from their friends and family while they are attending The Ravines.
- 3. Church Commitment: a couple is encouraged to seek support from their home church. As part of the application process, we ask our clients to obtain a reference from their pastor, elder or church leader. The Ravines will provide a financial support request form for a couple to present to their church. The Ravines has found that most churches are very open to partnering with the couple and The Ravines to help bring healing and restoration to their marriage.
- 4. Ravines Financial Assistance: Once a couple has completed steps 1-3 and has found that there is still a financial need, a request can be made to the Ravines for financial/scholarship support. As of now, The Ravines has scholarship funds for couples that are in financial need. Contact us with further information.
Our prayer is that we can remove as many hurdles in a couple’s life that might be preventing them from getting the help that they so desperately need.
