Retrouvaille (Marriage Help)

Register for a Weekend

Do you feel lost, alone or bored in your marriage? Are you frustrated, hurt or angry with your spouse? Are you constantly fighting? Or, do you simply shut down? Have you thought about separation or divorce? Does talking about it only make it worse? Retrouvaille is available to help. This program is for married couples facing difficult challenges in their relationship.

Thousands of couples headed for cold, unloving relationships or divorce have successfully overcome their marriage problems by attending the program. It consists of a weekend experience followed by a series of 6 to 12 post-weekend sessions over a three-month period. It provides tools to help couples with troubled marriages to heal. See upcoming dates.

The main emphasis of Retrouvaille is on communication in marriage between husband and wife. It gives couples the opportunity to rediscover each other and examine their lives together in a new and positive way.

• Retrouvaille is a Christian marriage program, Catholic in origin, where couples of all faiths or no faith background are encouraged to attend.
• Presenters are not trained marriage counselors, but rather couples sharing their personal stories of marital struggles and the tools they used to rediscover their love.
• Separated and divorced couples are also encouraged to attend.

Retrouvaille is offered each February and September. For details about the next weekend, see the Calendar of Events. To learn more, read Recovering couple says any marriage is worth fighting for or Retrouvaille offers hope and support for couples in pain.
