They acted like newlyweds and we wanted to that feeling, said the Wilsons who have been married 11 years and still enjoy holding hands. The weekend brought deeper meaning to their relationship and the Wilsons are now coordinators of Episcopal Marriage Encounter in Utah. When John Ouellette, who lives in Layton, first heard about Marriage Encounter, he was not interested. I expected it would be a group encounter where you poured out your guts and that wasnt for me, said Ouellette ples communication -- riage Encounter weekends focus on the individual couple with group interaction occurring only at meals. The format consists of presentations by experience married couples. After listening to the talks, each couple discuss how they feel about the presentation. An Episcopal weekend in Utah is typically attended by couples from a variety of religious backgrounds who spend Friday evening through Sunday afternoon at a motel in Salt Lake City where the presentations are conducted. People attending range in age from 18 to 70 and have been married as little as six months to more than 30 Like other states and I-- i. :? techni-- ; ques.

Studies consistently show that the ability of a husband and wife to effectively communicate their feelings is a critical component in marital happiness. Tricia and Pat McGarvey, who live in Roy, had been mar? ried five years when her mother,' Shirley Mitchell, encouraged them to go on a . weekend. Tricia became interested because both her mother and her sister felt it had strengthened their marriages. Pat went because his wife wanted him to go, but felt their marriage was fine the way it was. He was happily surprised to find the weekend increased his satisfaction with his marriage. It gave us a tool we can use to communicate better. Feelings are what a relationship is about and we didnt fully realize they are the bottom line until after the weekend, said McGarvey. After the initial weekend, couples are offered opportunities to continue activities within the Marriage Encounter community. There is a special bond between couples who experience a weekend, explained Alice Wilson. We know we have a home away from home whenever we see the Marriage Encounter symbol or find a 15 OZ.
