Catholic Engaged Encounter is a weekend for engaged couples to concentrate on each other, free from the distractions of daily life. It is designed to give couples an opportunity to dialogue intensively and honestly about their future life together. Self identity, role expectations of each other, money, sex, children, family and religion are some of the topics of face-to-face dialogue with one’s partner. CEE provides quality marriage preparation for couples planning to marry in the Catholic Church, but non-Catholics are also welcome to attend.

The next weekend, April 24-26, begins Friday evening at 7:30 p.m. at Slaton Mercy Retreat Center and concludes Sunday afternoon at 2 p.m. The fee of $225/couple includes rooms and meals. Late registration fee of $60 will be charged for registration with two weeks before your weekend. Please pay in full with registration. When registering, send check or money order payable to Diocese of Lubbock CCE. Refundable if cancellation is made within two (2) weeks before the encounter weekend.
