Weekend Getaway Marriage Conference – Lake Louise, AB
Apr 25 - Apr 27, 2025
What is a Weekend Getaway?
The Weekend Getaway is a marriage conference uniquely designed to enrich your relationship. For most couples it’s a chance to reconnect, re-establish the foundation and rekindle romance. For others, it’s a fresh start. For some, it will be the weekend that saves a marriage.
Wherever you’re at in your relationship, this retreat is a weekend to remember. The atmosphere is relaxed and warm, even fun. You’ll hear from real couples doing real life together… God’s way. You’ll be given time to process what you’re learning, just between the two of you (there’s no group sharing expected). And together, you’ll make a plan for a marriage that lasts a lifetime.

Speakers
Brent & Céleste Trickett
Brent and Céleste live in Saskatoon with their four children who have turned their home into a small zoo. They have been married since 2000 and have served with FamilyLife since 2013. They are the National Directors of FamilyLife Canada and their passion is to help others experience the joy of bringing help and hope to the marriages and families in their communities.
Jason & Sandy Yuen
Jason and Sandy have been married for 15 years but their love story started in their teens when they began dating in high school. Sandy homeschools their three kids while Jason works at a software company he started with his university friends. They have three kids, live in Toronto and love learning new plant-based recipes, as well as biking and growing their faith as a family. Their vision is to ignite marriages and families for Christ!
Braden & Kristen Hafner
Since their parents are friends and they grew up in the same church, Braden and Kristen joke that their marriage was arranged. But the truth is Kristen found Braden to have too much hockey hair for her liking. So Braden cut off his luscious locks and the rest is history. Kristen, a former high school science teacher, and Braden, an ordained pastor, have been married for 14 years and live in Edmonton. Together they are the Regional Directors of Alberta for FamilyLife Canada. They run Starting Marriage Strong, FamilyLife’s pre-marriage course, and Braden co-hosts Pure Victory Podcast helping individuals get free from porn.
