As we wrap up another weekend of No Retreat Marriage Encounter for 2026, our hearts are overflowing with gratitude. What happens on these weekends is so much more than an event—it’s a time to step away from the noise, get before God, and allow Him to speak into the heart of a marriage.
We’ve watched walls come down, hearts soften, forgiveness begin, perspective change, and marriages renewed. God has moved mightily, reminding couples that their marriage has purpose and that He is not finished with their story.
And to every attendee who said yes, and every server who continues to come back, pour out, and make room to be poured into by God—we are so grateful for you.You make this mission possible.
Thank you for believing in marriage. Thank you for fighting for your own. Thank you for serving others. And thank you for continually saying YES to what God is doing through Encounter Ministries.
We came to fight for marriage. We left reminded that God is fighting for us.
Here's a few pictures from our weekend
