What is an Engaged Encounter?

The Engaged Encounter is a weekend
where an atmosphere is created in which
each couple can concentrate exclusively
on one another, free of the tensions and
interruptions of the world. It is a very
quiet weekend specifically designed to
give the couples planning marriage an
opportunity to dialogue honestly and
intensively about their prospective lives
together..their strengths and weaknesses,
their desires, their ambitions, their goals,
their attitudes about money, sex, children,
family, their role in their Church and
society..in a face to face way. The
Engaged Encounter fulfills the
instructional requirements of the diocese
for marriage preparation.
