Churches who want to support and minister to
families today are realizing that families come in all varieties.
Because of the rate of divorce and the growing number of births to
unwed mothers, the majority of children born today are expected to
spend at least part of their childhood in a single-parent or a blended
family. Shared custody, remarriage and step-parenting issues make
today's family ministry a challenge for any church.
Wedding Ideas for Stepfamilies
This part of the service comes after the vows
have been exchanged and the minister
pronounces the couple to be man and wife.
Challenges of Step Families
Every one-on-one relationship comes with its own challenges, but
those are
multiplied when two families are brought together under one roof.
In the step-family,
you don't just have a relationship with one individual to consider,
but different
relationships with two, three or even more individuals from
different generations.
