Beginning Experience
The Beginning Experience is a weekend program designed to help divorced, separated and widowed persons make a new beginning in life in a non-judgmental, caring, Christian environment of peers.
Catholic Singles
The Catholic Singles is oriented to single adults (over age 21) who have never been married. However, the group is also open to those who were once married and are single again.
Engaged Encounter
The Archdiocese of Santa Fe requires that any couple preparing for marriage fulfill a marriage preparation course prior to their wedding day. This class is one of the courses that a couple may choose from.
Engaged: other Ministries
Other ministries for the engaged include Evening for the Engaged, Pre-Cana of Santa Fe, and Spanish Pre-Cana.
DOVES
DOVES is a community of adults offering support and fellowship: to persons suffering from loss of a spouse through death, divorce or separation and to those who, having adjusted to the loss of a spouse, seek fellowship with men and women who share a similar history
Marriage Encounter
The Marriage Encounter weekend is an invitation for married couples to discover themselves more fully in an accepting and loving atmosphere.
Marriage Enrichment
The Marriage Enrichment Weekend Program is designed to enrich marriage through the sharing of real life experiences, to provide mutual support for married and engaged couples, and to build couple leadership and parish community.
Retrouvaille
Retrouvaille (French for Rediscover) is a program for hurting couples and even for couples that are on the verge of divorce. Weekends are usually held at the Madonna Retreat Center, (Albuquerque's West Side).
