Our Lady of Good Counsel Retreat House will hold the “Love and Life Program: I+You=We” Oct. 28-29.
Couples of all ages are invited to the weekend workshop, where they will receive valuable examples and encouragement aimed at enriching and fortifying their marriages. The workshop offers fundamental steps to help couples address challenges and prepare for potential issues before they arise.
Guided by host couples and a priest, during the weekend participants will have the opportunity to navigate and heal from wounds within their marriages, gaining insights and resilience for the future. The workshop is tailored for all types of marriages, whether troubled, functional, or strong, with the goal of preventing habits and mistakes that can lead to unhappiness and divorce.
Afterward, couples will be able to become part of the “Love and Life Community” which serves as a refueling station and a safe harbor for graduates of I+You=We. The community allows couples and families to grow in friendship with others in the area, stay in touch, and refresh and practice the steps learned in I+You=We.
The Program 1 couples’ workshop will be held at Good Counsel Retreat House the weekend of Oct. 28-29, beginning Saturday with Mass at 8 a.m., and ending Sunday with Mass at 3 p.m.
The Love and Life Program was created by Father Jay, of the Institute of the Holy Family in Łomianki, Poland.
