    RetrouvailleRetrouvaille is a weekend for couples with troubled marriages. These might be characterized by deep divisions in the relationship, on-going marriage counseling, separations, even serious talk of divorce. It is a lifeline for troubled marriages. Local contacts are given in our Links to Local ME Sites.

    Engaged EncounterEngaged Encounter is a weekend experience for couples planning to get married. It helps couples examine areas of their relationship that they may not have been looked at, simply because they never came up. It is far better to share our thoughts and expectations in these areas before getting married rather than waiting to discover serious disagreements in vital areas after the wedding.

    Click here for information on Marriage Encounter in other areas or for other heart denominations; becaus this link sometimes changes, it is simply linked from the main WWME site.

    And here is a link to a great resource: ERL (Encounter Resources Library) contains many WWME resources; it is a repository for files that offer resources to help everyone in the WWME Community.
