Refer to the Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC) paragraphs 1601-1666 for more detailed information on this sacrament.

Engaged Encounter Weekends

Catholic Engaged  Encounter is a weekend retreat away with other engaged couples with plenty of  time alone together to plan for a sacramental marriage. It is designed to give couples planning marriage the opportunity to dialogue honestly and intensively about their prospective lives together-- their strengths and weaknesses, desires, ambitions, goals, their attitudes about money, sex, children, family, their role in the church and society--in a face to face way.
