1. Our group was exceptionally small, which for us was perfect. After 44 years of marriage we got to know each other in a much deeper way, sharing our thoughts and feelings in a way that we never imagined possible. It was time just for us. At the end of the weekend we felt very close to each other. This new openness has continued and we would encourage everyone to try Marriage Encounter for themselves. We wish we’d gone on an encounter weekend years ago. Peter & Denise Johnson, Belmont Abbey weekend, 2009
2. We found the weekend truly enlightening. It allowed us time to find ourselves as a couple. It was inspiring to hear the presenting couples with their stories. It was emotional, but we were able to tackle and solve issues that we needed to for years. We found the priest very inspiring. There was a lot of love and acceptance on the weekend. The whole event was very well organised, the food was great...The whole experience changed our relationship for the better. We would recommend the Marriage Encounter Weekend to everyone.

3. Our ME weekend has brought us much closer in our married life. Our love, which had reached a plateau before our weekend, has blossomed and we are more like a young couple than one of 42 years standing! We are communicating now rather than just being together. The result is that we share anything and everything and love to spend quality time with one another.
