The Catholic Engaged Encounter of Stockton community offers between 6-8 retreats per the calendar year. Each weekend-long retreat is limited to 35 couples. You must register in advance at www.stocktonee.org. It is highly suggested that couples attend a Catholic Engaged Encounter 2-12 months prior to their wedding date. All retreats are currently presented in English only; however, retreat workbooks are available in Spanish.
