Marriage as Prayer (Father Larry Gillick, SJ, and Fr. Greg Carlson, SJ)


This weekend retreat will offer married couples time to pray individually and with their spouses about the sacredness of their marriage. There will be time for each spouse to pray privately and then share with her/his spouse. There will be time for relaxation, walks together and meeting other couples during meals. Come and listen to how your love for each other has brought you closer to each other and to yourself and, just maybe, how God has been involved closely in your marriage as your guide! These days of grace will be vocation encounter, rather than a marriage encounter. Come with your spouse to this retreat away to encounter yourselves as loved by your spouse and loved by God. Co-sponsored by St. John’s Parish at Creighton University.
