Catholic Engaged
Encounter
A highly effective marriage
preparation program designed to meet the needs of today's engaged couples.
Engaged Encounter introduces
couples to a communication technique they can use effectively to foster a
deeper knowledge of each other. Each couple comes to realize
that marriage is a sacrament and a vocation, and that God and prayer are
essential to a fruitful marriage. Each person is challenged to
review the decision-making process and to examine the motives for seeking
marriage.
A Commitment to
Marriage
The presenting teams usually
consist of two married couples and a priest who give a series of carefully
prepared presentations. The teams are serious about marriage, and
believe that it is a sacrament and should not be entered into unadvisedly
or lightly, but deliberately and seriously. Engaged
Encounter is an intensive weekend of
work during which each couple is offered the time and opportunity to
question, examine, and deepen their relationship with each other and with
God. Couples are challenged to explore their relationship in a much
deeper and more honest way than they have done before. Topics covered during the
weekend include self-awareness, human sexuality, communications, decision
making, Natural Family Planning, vocation, sacrament, unity and more.
