"Love one another ardently"

Reserve my spot

A weekend for couples

Love within a couple is precious.

God is present and helps us deepen and bear fruit in our long-term commitment, with his resources.  

Prayer can heal, restore what has been wounded, and face the risks of the future while learning to truly listen to one another.

Taking time to let ourselves be touched by the infinite tenderness of God for each of us, and for our relationship in particular.

Preacher: Fr. Dominique Bostyn, Lacépède, and accompanying couples.
