One of the core values here at La Iglesia is “Healthy Families”. We believe the Lord has called us to bring marriages together. Both husband and wife may understand that the strongest bond they hold is in the covenant of marriage. What God has joined together, let no one separate (Matthew 19:6). La Iglesia is dedicated to establishing healthy marriages and empowering them to walk in their God-given purpose. We were honored to have hosted our first marriage retreat in February where we got to see the Lord move mightily. Pastor Homero and Claudia Garcia (La Iglesia Mundelein) gave us three powerful sessions on the covenant of marriage.
The Lord wants us to confront and leave behind everything that is not going to lead us to have a healthy marriage. (Machismo, Matriarch) wrong ideas of each gender’s role in marriage.

- The Lord wants us to examine our hearts. Identify what is keeping us chained and unable (Lust, Pornography, bitterness) to enjoy the life of intimacy with our partner.
- The importance of praying and interceding for your partner. We need to be marriages that pray.
As a church, we believe in the gifts of the Holy Spirit. We believe in the gifts to be a method God uses to edify his Church. The marriage retreat was not the exception. Many were edified through words of knowledge, words of wisdom, and the interpretation of tongues. We continue to pray and are committed to seeing marriages restored by the power of God and his word.
