Marriage Moment: The blessing of being married many years is being comfortable and secure with each other The curse is also comfort and security. Is it time to shake up your routine? Eat at a different time. Make love in a different way. Bring roses on an ordinary day. . .

MARRIAGE ENRICHMENT

And God said, "For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and unite with his wife, and the two will become one. So they are no longer two but one." Matthew 19:5-6

The following are some of the programs offered in the Diocese for Marriage Enrichment.

MARRIAGE ENCOUNTER -- a weekend designed to help married couples communicate more intimately with one another in order to deepen and enrich their relationship. The weekend is free from everyday routines, distractions and tensions. An atmosphere is created where the couple can concentrate exclusively on one another in a private and confidential environment. A series of presentations that touch on many aspects of marriage is given by three couples and a Catholic priest. After each presentation, the couple has time in the privacy of their own room for personal sharing using the communication techniques learned on the weekend. There are no "group" discussions. The weekend starts at 8:00 p.m. of Friday and runs until 4:00 p.m. on Sunday. All faith expressions are welcome. www.wwme.org, Tom and Mary Frances Burke 307-577-7456 or Mike and Ann Wingert 307-637-0441.
