We Help Couples Rediscover their Love.

We are the Original Retrouvaille Marriage Help Program in New England. 

Founded in 1990 by couples looking to grow stronger and heal their own marriages and help others do the same. If you are looking for a Christian marriage retreat, you are in the right place!

Designed for Couples Seeking Renewal

Whether you're struggling with communication, considering separation, or facing other challenges, Retrouvaille of New England offers support for couples at every stage of difficulty. Sessions begin with a weekend intensive, followed by additional sessions to solidify progress. 

From minor issues to serious crises, over a hundred thousand couples have found renewed hope. Retrouvaille is rooted in Christian values and Catholic tradition, but welcomes couples of all faiths or no faith. Optional religious services are available during the weekend.

 Each Retrouvaille of New England weekend is led by three couples and a priest or minister and spouse.  The team couples have personally experienced serious marital difficulties and found healing through the Retrouvaille marriage program. 

We are a Lifeline for Marriages in Need

Retrouvaille is a marriage program designed to help couples heal, rebuild trust, and restore love. It’s known as a "well-kept secret" and often succeeds where other efforts have failed.

Open to couples of all faiths, it’s grounded in practical tools for better communication and deeper connection. 

Presenting couples share their personal stories of overcoming struggles, offering hope through real-life experiences rather than traditional counseling. Many professionals recommend Retrouvaille as a foundational step for improving communication and restoring connection in a positive, supportive environment. 

Retrouvaille is a  safe space with no forced sharing. 

While team members share a Christian faith, the program focuses on marriage restoration. The tools and principles work effectively for couples of all faiths or no faith. 

We are Building Strong Marriages:
In a society where divorce is often seen as the norm, Retrouvaille is dedicated to supporting marriages and promoting growth and reconciliation. While not all marriages can be saved, many couples can benefit from the effective communication tools taught in the program. Your family can benefit from you attending this program.
