COUPLES WHO ARE STRUGGLING IN THEIR MARRIAGES often turn to their church for advice or resources. Retrouvaille can help! Retrouvaille is a Canonically Recognized apostolate of the Roman Catholic Church (2016) and is designed for married couples facing difficult challenges in their relationship. The next program will begin with a weekend on September 25-27. Registration ends September 23. Contact HelpOurMarriage.org or call 800-470-2230 to register. Cost is $450.00 per couple and includes lodging and meals. Retrouvaille is a self-supporting non-profit, and they invite couples to "pay it forward" to help others transform their marriages. This ministry relies on your generosity to continue. There are a few handouts available in the Narthex.
