Catholic Engaged Encounter is a ministry dedicated to helping build stronger marriages. It is composed of married couples and priests, who value the Sacrament of Marriage.

The Catholic Engaged Encounter weekend retreat offers engaged couples a once in a lifetime opportunity to experience the fullness of their relationship and God's call to unite them in marriage.

It provides couples an opportunity to examine and deepen their commitment to one another and gives them a realistic and up close view of marriage.

The Weekend takes the couples on a personal journey with each other into the Sacrament of Marriage and the impact their marriage will have on their friends, family, and world around them.

The weekend is open to all couples regardless of their faith background.


"Marriage is the icon of God's love for us.

Indeed, God too is communion: the three Persons of the
Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit
have always lived and live forever in perfect unity.

And this is the mystery of marriage:
God makes married couples into one existence"

Pope Francis I
