The Diocese of Winona announces its 2nd Annual Married Couples Retreat
The Office of Life, Marriage & Family is hosting its second annual married couples retreat. Please join us for a wonderful opportunity to grow closer to your spouse while you both grow closer to Christ!
What is it?
The retreat is a chance for you and your spouse to get away from the everyday busyness of life and to focus on the two great loves in your life: Jesus Christ and your spouse.
Who will lead the retreat?
Peter & Theresa Martin, proud parents of five little boys (and baby #6 due at the end of March), will direct the retreat. Drawing from their many studies in Theology and their many years in marriage ministry, Peter and Theresa are excited to lead this retreat as they assist you and your spouse in deepening the love you have for Christ and for one another. Time will be set aside for prayer, Reconciliation, the Celebration of the Eucharist (Saturday morning), and, of course, time with your spouse.
