By Sheri & Bob Stritof, About.com
Here are some more testimonies from couples who have attended an Engaged Encounter weekend.I think every engaged couple should have such a wonderful experience before saying I do! God Bless, Jillian. I had no idea what to expect from this weekend. I figured we'd have people just talking at us, but the stories and real-life experiences from the presenters were so great! Funny and touching. We had so much time to reinforce our positive aspects of our relationship and also highlight the things we need to work on. It was great! Thanks, Kimberly The last day of our Engaged Encounter weekend... After a weekend of emotions and getting in touch with our gushy feelings, I'm going home and rent a Rambo or Arnold Schwarzenegger movie! Jill. When we came this weekend, we thought we had it all figured out. We have always communicated well and have had each other's happiness in mind. What this weekend has shown us is that there is so much to learn and so much room to grow. This was a wonderful experience. Thank you, Gabe and Terry. The days ahead will open your eyes, your heart and yourself to your partner in a way you never thought was possible. The weekend is an unbelievable experience, one you will treasure and use your whole lifetime. Enjoy! God bless all of you. Shelley & Mike. I think it will make a big difference in your outlook. It sure opened my eyes. This weekend has guided us in making some decisions that will affect the rest of our lives. Your being here is a good start! This is a wonderful opportunity to find new freedom and depth of your commitment. Bob & Jo We gained a greater appreciation for the strengths in our relationship, and a new focus on our opportunities to grow. We will pray that you have a similar experience. Mary & David We're very happy that we were part of this event. This weekend was like a review before we say "yes" to each other. Those precious times we spent together will be there to come back to if we have disillusionment. And the notebooks are our guides, with some precious tools for fixing what will need to be fixed, so we could be always as happy a couple as we are right now. Fasia & Alan We really gained a lot from this weekend. It has brought us closer together. It has deepened our commitment. We hope it will do the same for you. Teresa & Mike Enjoy your weekend here. You'll learn a lot and have a lot of fun getting to know your lover deeper. We enjoyed it very much. You'll have a lot of chances to talk to each other too. God Bless! Best Wishes! Judi and Frank What you will experience this weekend will be so enlightening and beneficial for your future endeavors as one. We both wish you much happiness and contentment in your future lives like we have found being with one another. Melissa & Josh As much as you think you know one another, you will come away with at least one nice surprise. We hope yours is as nice as ours. Good luck in your marriages.
