Two Chapter Launches
Welcome Side By Side – Canada!
We’re thrilled to celebrate a very special milestone: our very first Side By Side chapter in Canada! Side By Side – Canada is launching as a virtual chapter, creating a place for healthcare spouses across Canada to connect, encourage one another, and grow together.
We’re so grateful to Julie Thiessen for stepping into leadership and helping make this first chapter in Canada possible. We can’t wait to see how God builds community through Side By Side in Canada!

Our First Healthcare Marriages in Christ Event!
Healthcare Marriages in Christ - Jackson, MS was SO special! We gathered healthcare couples for a weekend of laughter, honest conversations, practical wisdom, and intentional investment in marriage. We also got to spend time with Side By Side - Jackson and the local CMDA chapter, which made it even sweeter.
Our prayer was simple: that every couple would leave with one “gold nugget” to strengthen their marriage and the reminder that they don’t have to navigate healthcare marriage alone.
And this is just the beginning! Next stop: Grand Rapids, MI | February 26–27, 2027.
