The 2025 Diocesan Marriage Retreat will be held March 28-30 at Topsail Hill State Park in Santa Rosa Beach. This is a weekend for married couples to spend quality time with one another and the Lord Jesus. Engaging talks, Mass, Adoration, availability of Confession, small group, and one on one time move couples to a deeper recognition of the centrality of Christ in their marriage. Each year the marriage retreat is held in a peaceful, natural setting where couples can enjoy the glory of God's creation together. Apart from sessions and sacramental experiences, there is ample time built into the weekend for rest and recreation.
Our featured speaker this year is Dr. Mario Sacasa, a renowned marriage and family life counselor who hosts the "Always Hope" podcast. Bishop Wack will also be in attendance during the weekend to celebrate the sacraments with us.
Cost:
$375 per couple for personal cabin
$225 per couple if willing to share cabin with one other couple
