MARRIAGE ENCOUNTER
Marriage Encounter is not a retreat, nor marriage guidance, nor group sensitivity.
It is a unique approach aimed at deepening Catholic marriage.
The starting point on this journey of discovery is a Marriage Encounter Weekend.

THEOLOGY OF THE BODY TEAM (TOB)
The TOB team brings St John Paul II’s teaching to the parishes and schools in the Diocese of Down and Connor.
When John Paul II was elected Pope in 1978 he knew that people needed to understand the “why” behind the “what” of Catholic moral teaching if it was to have meaning in their lives.   Pope John Paul wanted to demonstrate to the world the beauty of God’s plan for human sexuality and the joy of living it.   He did this in his teaching : The Theology of the Body.
Theology of the Body is for everybody – from teenagers to adults – single, engaged, married, priests and consecrated religious.
