SUMMARY:Hidden Treasure Retreat for Couples
DESCRIPTION:Christian Marriage Is Hard…and Beautiful \nRobert and Lori Fontana\, relationship educators\, return to Bon Secours to help couples discover the amazing gift of married love (even if that love has been frayed a bit). \nThe retreat begins with The Marriage Jackpot Date Night on Friday evening\, where you will meet Murphy the Marriage Salesman\, do the “how well do you know your spouse” quiz\, sing old love songs\, meet other couples\, and enjoy great snacks and spirits. \nThe retreat continues into Saturday and Sunday\, building on the insights and fun from Friday night. You will reflect on the beauty and challenges of Christian marriage; strengthen skills in communication\, active listening\, and self-awareness; explore together emotional needs for intimacy\, affection\, fun\, and sexual fulfillment; and have an opportunity to bring healing and forgiveness to relationship hurts. This is a participatory retreat with opportunities during each session for spouses/partners to separately complete relationship inventories related to the topic\, share their answers with each other\, dialogue\, and enjoy intentional time reflecting on their relationship…all while having fun together! Guided by Robert & Lori Fontana. \nCheck-in begins at 4pm. There will be a brief welcome session at 5:30pm\, followed by dinner at 6pm. The retreat begins after dinner at 7pm on Friday and concludes before lunch on Sunday. Mass will be available Sunday morning for those who wish to attend. \nThe price of $570 is per couple. \nFor single rooms or commuter options\, please email Doris.Gallagher@BonSecoursRCC.org. \nOn registration form\, place BOTH NAMES in name field.\n(e.g.\, First Name: John & Jane; Last Name: Doe/Smith).\n  \n \nLori and Robert Fontana have been married since 1978. They have six children and seven grandchildren. Together they direct Catholic Life Ministries NW (CLM)\, a non-profit educational and counseling outreach. \nLori was primarily a home mom. She has a certificate in Spirituality and Theology and taught elementary school for 12 years.
