Worldwide Marriage Encounter is excited to announce a transformative event titled
“God Chose You for Me,”
a seven-hour experience designed to deepen the spiritual connection between married couples. This unique program is guided by a priest or deacon, a married couple, and a widow or widower who will share their personal experiences of building strong spiritual foundations within their own marriages
The experience begins with the exploration of matrimonial spirituality, rooted in the love shared between husband and wife as a reflection of God’s presence. Couples are invited to reflect on God’s love for humanity and His desire to be “one” with us for them to explore their own desires for one another. This journey helps their love to blossom and mature, ultimately strengthening their commitment.
“Once you have said ‘yes’ to the Sacrament of Matrimony, the primary way God calls you to Him is through your married relationship,” Father Larry Brault, one of the authors of the experience, said.
Throughout the day, couples will be guided in creating a personal couple prayer developed progressively after each chapter of reflection. This prayer will serve as a daily spiritual practice, reinforcing their commitment and spiritual bond.
“God Chose You for Me” is about discovering the profound truth that married couples become an actual manifestation of God’s love and Christ in this world through the way you love each other. Couples are called to recapture their initial desire for each other, revealing how this desire reflects His desire to be in a relationship with us.
Worldwide Marriage Encounter invites all married couples to participate in this enriching experience and discover the presence of God within their marital covenant.
