- Married Couples
In the work force most of us
received training in our line of work and don't think twice about attending
ongoing education to assist us in our profession. The courses we take
are designed to keep our skills fresh and make us the best we can be.
However, in our most important vocation, the vocation of marriage, most of us
received little or no training at all. After the wedding, there is
little to offer. But there is something out there!! Attend a Worldwide
Marriage Encounter weekend and give your marriage a little extra boost.
A Worldwide Marriage Encounter
Weekend is designed for couples to get away from the hustle and bustle of
everyday life in order to focus solely on their relationship and each other
(all sharing is done within the privacy of the couple's room). Come get
away from it all and make your marriage
even better than it is today. Fro more information, please visit our
website www.wwmw-nc.info
or call Joe & Linda Costine (919) 553-8693, wmeregister@yahoo.com
