Do You Need Marriage Help?
We are a 3-phase program -

We are not just a feel good, get away weekend, we are a marriage program that continues after the initial weekend with follow up sessions that further develop the concepts that we introduce on the weekend.
Some of the topics we cover are:

• Communication skills
• Conflict Management
• Family of Origin
• Forgiveness & Trust
• Love & Commitment
• Marriage as a vocation
• Intimacy & Sexual Relationship

Proven Results:
Over 76% are still married to the same spouse at the five-year anniversary of their attending a Retrouvaille weekend.
Over 95% are likely to recomment the Retrouvaille Program to a struggling couple.

The Four Stages of Marriage:
Most marriabes go through a series of stages:

1. Romance
2. Disillusionment
3. Misery
4. Awakening to Joy

Due to the high divorce rate, many couples never make it to the 4th Stage of Awakened Joy. Don't wait for Misery to set in before you get help!

Ongoing monthly enrichment group meetings help you continue your journey.
