A Wedding is a Day, A Marriage is a Lifetime

This is one of many things Patty (my wife) and I learned when we attended our marriage preparation retreat with CEE. It was a wonderful weekend. We had the opportunity to discuss issues honestly, face to face, about our strengths and weaknesses, desires, ambitions, goals, attitudes about money, sex, family, spiritual values and our role in society.


Developed over 40 years ago, Catholic Engaged Encounter is an international Catholic marriage preparation program with communities in 31 countries; 211 dioceses worldwide, including 100 dioceses in the United States. The retreat is not group therapy, instead, it provides private one-on-one time for the couple to learn about each other and marriage based on 5 major themes: the family we grew up in, sacramental marriage, communications, intimacy, and values.
