Personal Initiatives: Marriage Counselors
Tomas and his wife, Ivonne, became Marriage Coaches and Directors of The Alexander House-Spanish, as a result of a lot of prayer and discernment, after they came back together after an ugly divorce. They received help from Greg and Julie Alexander, founders of The Alexander House. A few months after their reconciliation, they asked God to show them where He needed them. They clearly saw that The Alexander House was where they had to be. They clearly realize that you are better equipped to help others, when you have experienced a marriage crisis yourself. They want to help couples rediscover their happiness and be fulfilled in their marriage. They are fully bilingual but mainly work with Spanish speaking couples.
