Baltimore Catholic Engaged Encounter

We would like to thank you for making our Engaged Encounter Weekend such a wonderful experience. It was obvious that you spent a lot of time and energy preparing for the weekend. The personal and intimate details of your relationship that you so openly shared, and being in a quiet place away from all of the everyday distractions, enabled us to share in depth so many of the things we had touched on in the past, and it really brought us closer. We appreciate all of the sacrafices you made to stren…

Thank you for a wonderful weekend. Chris and I have learned so much together this weekend. We feel we have a lot of new tools to help make our marriage successful. We enjoyed meeting all of you and witnessing your love for each other

While it would be earnestly honest to reveal that we came to the monastery “as required” by our preist. We wish to pass along that we left on Sunday with a feeling of accomplishment and a feeling that we had just added a little more horsepower to the engine that makes us go as a couple. Heartfelt thanks to each of you as you continue to journey through the enriching journey that is marraige. Your brutal honesty was refreshing and identifiable to us. We hope that our journey will be similar to yo…

Thank you for a wonderful weekend.  Through your guidance we feel that we have deepened our relationship and learned ways in which we may deepen our love in the presence of God.

We would like to be a prayer couple for a Catholic/non-Catholuc couple like us.  Coming into this weekend Josh had various concerns about pressures to convert or accept God.  We found this experience very helpful and would like to share this with a couple who may have similar concerns.  Thank you for this weekend.

“Thank you for the lovely weekend. We enjoyed ourselves and learned a lot. We will recommend Engaged Encounter to others”

Thank you for the great weekend and for giving us the courage to tackle the tough issues.  We have grown and our marriage will be better for it.

Thank you for a wonderful weekend. We were able to really work on our issues, both old and new. For me (Lauren) as a Lutheran who has been very involved in both the Lutheran and Catholic churches I was both excited and concerned about what this weekend might bring. You all far surpassed my expectations by being welcoming, warm and non-judgemental. You stayed true to what the church teaches while being respectful of those present who may not completely ascribe to those views. You walked a fine li…

Suzanne, As a mother and expectant mother, I know you have very little time to spare so thank you for spending your valuable time with us over the weekend. Troy and I weren’t forced to go through CEE, however my Lutheran pastor urged us to do some form of counseling. We had a recommendation for CEE and being Troy is Catholic, we moved forward with the weekend. We (admittedly) drudgingly drove up after a long, hard work week in DC to the Spiritual Center in MD, but now are so grateful we did. Thr…

Thank you so much for taking the time to provide a wonderful and informative weekend for us. Though William and I have known each other for 4 years we learned a lot more about ourselves, which may have not happened if it was not for this weekend.
