  HEART TO HEART

A Couples' Enrichment Weekend Retreat
    
  What happens?

  

  

TOGETHER - LARGE GROUP

Beginning Friday evening, continuing all day and evening on Saturday, and ending mid-afternoon on Sunday, you will listen as a group to a series of ten to twelve topics.  Each topic will be explained and illustrated by personal stories shared by the lead couples.  As leaders, our hope is that our experiences will open the door for you to look into yourselves and your relationship.  Except for very brief introductions Friday evening and an optional Sunday afternoon closing, participants are not asked to share with the group. 

 
ON YOUR OWN - INDIVIDUAL & COUPLE

After each presentation, you will: 

(a) write two or three questions in your notebook;  then

(b) spend time alone, indoors or out, reflecting on and writing about the topic presented;   and later 

(c) meet in a private space with your partner, where the two of you will share your thoughts and feelings in conversation about the topic.

AFTER THE WEEKEND

After each Heart to Heart retreat, participating couples are encouraged to form small groups and continue to meet on a regular basis, and many do.  One to two months after the retreat, leaders guide couples as they begin this process.
