FAMILY CIRCLE - FEBRUARY, 2001 |
SPECIAL REPORT - SPIRITUAL JOURNEYS, A WOMEN'S GUIDE TO RETREATS
TAKE YOUR SPOUSE WITH YOU
Weekend retreats, available through the Worldwide Marriage Encounter movement, are offered to couples in good marriages who want to learn new ways to deepen their communication.
Six months after Sharon Brooks began working in the home office of Worldwide Marriage Enocunter, she suggested to her husband, Larry, that they celebrate their 15th anniversary with a marriage encounter weekend. "We had a transforming experience," she says. "We talked about things we had long held inside and grew much closer." Thirteen years later she still works for Marriage Encounter and says her own marriage is better than ever.
There are 12 religious affiliates in Worldwide Marriage Encounter, so you have a choice of denomination. Some couples renew their marriage annually; others join post-encounter support groups. For information, call 1-800-795-5683 or 1-909-863-9963. E-mail: wwme800@aol.com. On the web, look up www.wwme.org.
