LOCATION
Maryhill Renewal Center 600 Mary Hill Road Pineville, LA 71360 |
AUDIENCE
The ECHO weekend retreat at Maryhill Renewal Center is open to engaged couples who are preparing to enter into a Catholic sacramental marriage.
At ECHO at Maryhill Renewal Center, engaged couples will come together for the weekend of February 24-26 to dive into St. John Paul II's Theology of the Body in preparation to enter into the sacrament of marriage while in the context of authentic community with other couples and mentors. The retreat will offer dynamic talks, life giving discussions, quality time, encounters with Christ through the sacraments, art, music, silent prayer, and so much more!
**Approved mentor couples of engaged couples that are attending the retreat are welcome to attend. This provides an opportunity for the mentor couple to help the engaged couple integrate the retreat experience into their relationship in an ongoing way. Cost for mentor couples is $425. See registration link below.
Please note, having a mentor couple is one of many options for marriage preparation, but not a requirement. If you do not have a mentor couple or your mentor couple cannot attend, it will in no way diminish this retreat experience for you.
**Check with your priest to see if this retreat will fulfill your marriage prep obligation or if it will be a supplemental experience.**
ACCOMMODATIONS
Maryhill Renewal Center offers both double occupancy and single occupancy rooming options. Availability of single rooms is limited and will be assigned on a first come-first served basis. Unmarried registrants may request a roommate of the same sex during the registration process. Married mentor couples will be roomed together.
