Why “Nehemiah”?
The Old Testament Prophet, Nehemiah, rallied his community to rebuild the broken city walls of Jerusalem. In the same fashion, the walls of Springfield and Clark County, Ohio need to be replaced, fortified, and strengthened--brick by brick. This work must begin with the families, the foundation of any community, that live and work within the walls.

Quarterly Stories
MARRIAGE RESOURCE CENTER
A few years ago, a young couple who was struggling in the early years of their marriage called us for help and resources. They attended our RINGS class and afterwards followed through with mentoring. Last year, when they hit a very big snag in their relationship they called and asked if they could go through mentoring again with their same mentor couple because of the trust they had developed with them. The mentoring went well and the couple was able to strengthen their relationship and their family. (They have two beautiful little boys under the age of five) A few weeks ago, the wife called us and shared that she had recently accepted Christ as her Savior. She said part of this renewal in her life is a calling to be a mentor couple to help other couples who have struggled as they have. She has talked to her husband and he agrees that he would like to participate in a ministry that helps other couples. We (MRC) will continue to work with them and encourage and affirm them until they are ready to begin the challenging, yet rewarding, work of mentoring!
