The program offers couples the chance to rediscover their spouse and a loving relationship in their marriage. The program is designed to help marriages and So does not accept common-law marriages, Retrouvaille began as a French language program in Quebec, in 1977. Later it was translated into English and has spread, worldwide, It. has 2a. strong spiritual. component but. it “is” ‘opén® ‘to couples .of no religious persuasion. It con- sists of a live-in weekend experience and a follow-up lasting for twelve weeks. The weekend is run by three couples and a priest. The couples and priest are not counsellors. Through their own personal sharings, they help the couples learn a new technique of communication. The weckend is not a spiritual retreat, not a sensilivity group, not a seminar, nor is it a social gathering. It is a very private weekend. Couples share only with their spouse. The pattern of the weckend is a presenta- tion by one of the team couples and priest. Then some questions are given to be ans- wered individually. After that, the couples go to their rooms and talk about their answers, There is no group sharing. The focus of the weekend is healing and communication. Ifa couple’s marriage has become unlov- ing, uncaring, has grown cold and distant with little =or no communication, Retrowvaille can help. Even if a couple have separated or divorced, or thinking about it, they can try again. Retrouvaille can help them rediscover their marriage again. While saying that, the weekend is not a “miracle cure,’ The twelve follow-up sessions help deepen the weekend experience. These ses- sions review, in depth, earlier concepts of ihe weekend; present new. ones and help _ couples apply these to their marriages, _ One -couple’s. comments after the weekend are; ‘‘Retrouvaille —hasn’t eliminated our problems or concems but has given us tools to work with. It has given better understanding of each other and the maturity to talk things out instead of fighting.”’ Another couple said: ‘“‘We had drifted apart over the years, almost living like strangers together, Our love was buried un- der bitterness and anger; we rarely talked and mostly tolerated one another. We found we could begin again, forget the past mis- takes we had both made and go on from here,”’ A Retrouvaille weekend has been sched- uled in Terrace from May 14-16, 1999, For more information contact: Max & Marla 2313, Thank You For mace information coll §35-5912 Bothelho, 635-5459 or Rev.
