Welcome To St. Joseph Marriage Encounter

The Marriage Encounter Experience Marriage Encounter is a beautiful weekend experience that will enrich your marriage and take it to a new level that you might not have thought possible. Our busy lives can be an obstacle to keeping our marriage relationships nurtured and tenderly cared for through quality communication and sharing of ones hopes and dreams. The weekend provides an environment that is conducive to reawakening the deep love that you hold for each other and reminds you again of the loving qualities that you saw in your spouse when you first met.

We attended a Marriage Encounter weekend in March of 1987 and our relationship has been tremendously enriched as a result of it. Our communication is open and speaks of feelings, which eliminates the defensiveness that we used to experience when we had a tough topic to discuss. There is a wonderful community of couples waiting with open arms to welcome you, who are just like yourselves and are devoted to their marriage relationships. Please accept this invitation to experience a weekend; it will be one of the best decisions you have ever made.

Marriage Encounter Weekends for 2008:
Feb 15-17      May 2-4      July 18-20      October 17-19
