Why would a priest or other religious attend?

The Marriage Encounter Weekend is designed in such a way that both priests and religious can participate fully. The principles of love, commitment and effective communication translate quite readily to the relationship between a priest and his parish or any group to whom he ministers, as well as to a religious community. Marriage Encounter also provides support and encouragement to priests and other religious who are dedicated to their vocation in life. Priests who have made an Encounter weekend call the experience "life enhancing." Worldwide Marriage Encounter invites you to attend. Please take advantage of our networking process by which we can help you get a replacement in your parish for the weekend you choose to attend.
