Naging makulay ang aming buhay mag-asawa mula ng kami ay mag-M.E.
- William & AbingN
Salamat sa M.E. dahil ngayon natuto ng mag-plantsa ang asawa ko!
- Ron & Jo
Hindi kayang bayaran ang natutunan naming mag-asawa sa M.E.

The ME Weekend was unbelievable, and we cannot believe that ME has been around for so long. As others, we were considering the option of separation, when I noticed an ad in the local paper. The weekend was nothing like we expected, but much more than we could have imagined. We have decided to stay together and to continue to dialogue. John has even gone to church for the first time in years, and is the catalyst in a prayer before we retire each night. I thank the Lord for small miracles. Even our children have noticed the difference, and agree that the weekend was a miracle. God bless and keep all of those who are selfless enough to donate their weekends for others like us. We keep you in our daily prayers.
"Noon ay madalas kaming mag-away ng aking asawa ngunit ng kami ay sumama sa MESF ay naging tahimik ang aming buhay. - Glenn & Pinky
"Ah, Marriage Encounter, yes, you are doing such important work in our church especially in this world we live in. I will pray for you and for your movement."
"I place much of my hope for the future in Marriage Encounter."

“Marriage is a total commitment and a total sharing of the total person with another person until death.”

“Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth.” ~ The Holy Bible, 1 Corinthians 13:4-6

Marriage Encounter (M.E.) is a religiously-based (non-sectarian) weekend program designed to help married couples by reason of discovering or re-discovering the need for God in their lives, to improve their marriage, grow closer to each other and improve commitment to each other. A marriage renewal program for the enhancement of the Sacrament of Marriage and encouraging conjugal spirituality, Marriage Encounters are open to couples of any or no religious persuasion.
The weekend programs usually begin on a Friday evening and conclude Sunday afternoon. Although they are not retreats in the classical sense, everyone stays the entire time at the hotel or other lodging facility where the program takes place. Three full Meals are provided with snacks in-between for the duration of the seminar.
Over the course of the weekend, attending couples are encouraged to communicate with one another with mutual respect, but always based upon the essential premise of inviting God into their lives. Marriage Encounter is not a traditional spiritual retreat, marriage clinic, group sensitivity training, or a substitute for counseling. Team members are not marriage counselors. Couples may benefit from learning the communication methods that may parallel some counseling methods.
A further attraction of Marriage Encounter weekends is the opportunity for M.E. alumni couples to meet periodically for renewal meetings after the weekends, called "reunions" in many Marriage Encounter programs.
