World Marriage Day Enrichment
Join us for a special World Marriage Day Enrichment event on Saturday, February 8, 2025, at St. John Neumann Catholic Church.
Check-in begins at 1:00pm, followed by the enrichment session at 1:30pm, and concluding with mass at 5:00pm.
The Diocese of Austin, Worldwide Marriage Encounter, Cedarbrake retreat center, and several parishes are partnering to offer marriage enrichments entitled "Decisions to Love/Decisiones de Amar." These sessions are designed for married couples to retreat from the busy world and focus on each other, making good marriages even better.
Options are available on either Saturday or Sunday, in English or Spanish. Each enrichment is a half-day, closing with mass. Cost is $25/couple and includes materials and snacks.
