Why attend a United Marriage Encounter Weekend?

Because it's time to start prioritizing your marriage.

Who

One man, one woman married couples seeking to make their good marriage even better!

What

 An intimate, but conference-style, event combining practical methods, Christian values, and personal experiences, presented by trained leadership couples and volunteers.

Why

An opportunity to learn new ways to communicate and also to connect deeply or even re-connect with your spouse on an emotional and spiritual level!

Life doesn't stop so you can work on your marriage.

 Work, laundry, kids, dinner – it all needs your attention.  It’s exhausting and leaves you with little energy for anything else.

We want to support your marriage.

Meeting your mate’s physical and emotional needs does not come naturally under today’s pressures. 

Designed to help couples take a break from life’s distractions and gain refreshment and renewal, a United Marriage Encounter Weekend offers practical tools and strategies as you ENGAGE each other, GROW your relationship, and TRANSFORM your life together.

So, what happens during a Weekend, anyway?

Your focus will be on one another.
Hear from the seasoned marriage veterans.

Hear from fun, engaging couples who have been there, trust us, as they teach and demonstrate practical communication methods that you can use to strengthen your marriage.

An intimate setting

 A United Marriage Encounter Weekend is set up as a conference-type setting with approximately 30 couples. But don't worry, you won't have to do small-talk and cheesy get-to-know-you icebreakers; After initial introductions, no other group sharing is required. 

Time to focus on you two.

After each session, you will be given time to work through a question in the privacy of your own room to personalize the information for you as a couple.  It’s an opportunity to connect deeply or even reconnect with your spouse free from the distractions of everyday life.

Transformation

The practical tools and time to reconnect with your spouse will leave you feeling closer than ever, prepared to re-enter the "real world" with practical tools for navigating the day-to-day as a married couple!
