St Augustine Marriage Ministry Marriage Retreat

This year’s SAMM Marriage Retreat will be hosted through Worldwide Marriage Encounter (WWME). The retreat will take pl​​​​ace November 7–9 at the beautiful Rehoboth Beach, Delaware. 

This all-inclusive weekend retreat is only $100 per couple, covering both meals and lodging. The retreat hotel is at Brighton Suites Hotel, 34 Wilmington Ave, Rehoboth Beach, DE 19971. 

The retreat is open to all married couples — Catholic, mixed-faith, and those with no religious affiliation. However, the experience is rooted in Catholic teaching on the Vocation of Marriage. The focus is not on group discussion but on private dialogue between you and your spouse. 

Throughout the weekend, three married couples and a priest will share personal examples from their own journeys, offering practical tools to help you and your spouse grow closer. Together, you’ll explore meaningful themes such as:

• Exploring your personality styles 
• Appreciating your differences 
• Listening in a new way 
• Communicating intimately 
• Addressing difficult topics 
• Discovering God’s desire for your marriage 
• Continuing the journey beyond the weekend
