Marriage Encounter is for married couples who want something more in their marriage: more fun, spontaneity, excitement, communication, understanding, romance, intimacy, passion or joy. Couples as young as 2 years married and as old as 50 years married have come to Marriage Encounter, and benefited from it.

​

A series of talks are presented by a team of trained couples and a priest.

Marriage Encounter welcomes all married couples who have the desire to deepen their relationship. Financial constraints should never be a reason for missing out on the weekend. If you need the ME Weekend subsidised, please Contact Us 

Marriage Encounter is for couples who are in a stable relationship and who recognize that there is always room for growth even in good marriages. The Weekend will help them rediscover and enrich their love for each other.
For marriages that are deeply troubled, in crisis, or have deep hurts that need significant healing and forgiveness, please consider our sister program, Retrouvaille.

Yes, Weekends are intended for priests & religious as well who desire to grow and deepen their Love with their “spouse” the Church. Many priests and religious, who experience a Weekend, come away with stronger communication skills, coupled with better ability to relate to their parish family and greater understanding of Family Life Ministries within their parish.

Marriage Encounter also provides couples an opportunity to look at their relationship with God and to better appreciate Marriage as a Sacrament of the Church.
