Couples Coaching
Couples will learn to communicate their needs, develop deep listening skills, and negotiate how they would like their core values to be honored in the relationship. Many times they discover that offering forgiveness and compassion to themselves and to each other can soften the heart and bring love, respect, and friendship back into the relationship.
Wedding Ceremonies
It is a joy for me to meet with couples face to face to plan a marriage ceremony that is uniquely theirs. I can perform wedding ceremonies anywhere in the Chicago area and suburbs in various locations; e.g., churches, private homes, banquet halls, country clubs, etc. I am also available for pre-marriage coaching, marriage vow renewals, and baby blessings.
Speaking and Workshops
My speaking topics and workshop programs can be tailored to fit the particular needs of your agency, organization, or faith community.

Creating Circles of Peace©
This is a workshop series of healing, restoration, and transformation which offers a safe place for participants to think, pray, and share with each other about how violence has affected our lives and our desire to live in true peace.

Creating Circles of Peace© could be of particular interest to: parents, faith communities, human service providers, law enforcement and legal professionals, youth leaders, and teachers. It is for anyone who is concerned about violence in our world and who has a willingness to look within, listen deeply to others, and then do the work of peace building. All faiths are welcome. Creating Circles of Peace© can be presented in a four or eight week workshop format limited to 12 participants; or as a keynote speech.

Meditations and Prayers
for Healing the Mind, Body & Spirit ©2009
Produced and read by Rev. Marsha Thomas
$18.00 (includes shipping and handling)
Because many of us live such fast-paced, complex, and chaotic lives, we must slow down and take time for deep relaxation, quieting the mind, and cultivating loving-kindness if we really want to create lasting peace in the world. In her first CD, Rev. Marsha Thomas offers her listeners an extraordinary gift of three calming exercises and reflections that will help us to “practice” peace. When incorporated into our daily lives, these practices can significantly reduce our stress levels, interrupt destructive cycles of violence, and teach us to water the seeds of peace and healing in ourselves, our families, our communities, and the world.
