Over the course of the experience – typically a weekend – three couples and a priest provide new tools, using examples from their own lives, to help couples work through common themes we can all relate to.
Worldwide Marriage Encounter is an enrichment for married couples who value their relationship and desire a richer, fuller life together. It is also for priests and religious who want to strengthen their relationships with their church communities.
A Worldwide Marriage Encounter experience is remarkably affordable! All that is needed to secure your spot at an experience is a non-refundable application fee, with fees varying from area to area.
Live a Weekend experience
The Marriage Encounter Weekend is an opportunity for couples to learn a loving communication technique that they can use for the rest of their lives. It’s a chance to look deeply into each other’s relationship and connection with God.
A Weekend begins at 6:00 pm on a Friday and concludes on Sunday around 6:00 pm.
