More than roommates marriage conference

january 31 - february 1, 2025 | HARRIS CREEK

Marriage is like a good song—when you like the melody, the beat, the way the voices and instruments work together, you want to hear that song over and over again. But when the notes clash and the instruments are out of tune, you remove that song from your playlist. This year at the More Than Roommates Marriage Conference, we want to help you make beautiful music together in your marriage. So warm up your vocal chords, come ready for a tune up, and join us for teaching, breakouts, worship, and a whole lot of fun!

Learn more and register at harriscreek.org/events.

The Lab is our monthly gathering for college students, designed to tackle real-life topics like dating, friendships, mental health, and more—all grounded in faith. Each night features practical teaching, meaningful conversations, and a safe space to ask the tough questions. Afterward, stick around for an unforgettable after-party with plenty of opportunities to relax, connect, and build community. Grab a friend and join us for a night that’s equal parts fun and impactful. We can’t wait to see you there!
