MARRIAGE:

A SACRAMENT MOST HOLY

 Marriages flourish because of the efforts by each spouse.  More and more, retreatants who come to our regular weekend retreats, are taking time with their spouses to reflect and nurture the spiritual life of their commitment by participating in a married couples retreat.

We yearn to hear God’s voice in our lives –  to know what is needed and expected of us.  We want to know:  Are we forgiven?  Does God really love us?  What does God want us to do?  These are not only personal questions but questions for married couples as well.

 I Hear the Voice of Jesus Say. . . in Our Marriage, is an opportunity to stop and listen to Jesus in a way that your busy life may not allow.  Jesus’ message in particular provides guidance and hope.  What is the voice of Jesus saying to you in your life – especially in your marriage?

 What does Jesus want to say to you in your life at this time?  It just may sound like this:  “Come away.  Spend these few days with Me, and I will show you the true path for Life!”

 Besides the presentations by the Center’s team, a  witness couple will tell their marriage story.  Additionally there will be time for reflection, celebrations of prayer and Mass, delicious meals, ‘date night’ with a movie & discussion and, most importantly, the shared spiritual experience to nurture your life as a couple.

The retreats begin on Friday evening with a pick-up supper between 6pm and 7:30pm and end on Sunday following 11:00am Mass.

The Fall Married Couples Retreat will be the weekend of November 2-4, 2007.  The Spring weekend will be May 16-18, 2008.

Please use the online reservation form or call 561-626-1300.

This retreat is presented by the Retreat Team of Our Lady of Florida in collaboration with the laity.  The suggested offering is $325.00 per couple.
