Marriage Encounter Weekend Testimonies

Paul and Jennifer Vaught

 

We thank the Lord for this ministry! It has not only been a blessing to us, but to our family and our friends as well. We went through Engaged Encounter and Marriage Encounter and I can not express fully in words how it has solidified our commitments, not only to each other but to all those we come in contact. 


Jeff and Rhonda Harvey

 

We were Encountered on March 23-25, 2001. I can hardly put into words what this weekend has done for our marriage. We found out things about one another that we had not discovered in our short 4 years of marriage. The ME communication tools were marriage savers!! The weekend was so saturated with prayer and anointing. We both felt it right away, but did not realize it until later. It was incredible to find out that so many people were praying for us and they didn't even know us. We would strongly urge any couples we know (and have been!!) to attend one of these weekends no matter what condition their marriage is in. Thank you so much for this ministry. God is blessing your efforts! 


Wanda Runyon

 

Was a great weekend. Would like to possibly connect with other ME couples in this area. 


Tracy Case

 

Marriage Encounter has helped me to realize that it is important to connect with your spouse on a daily basis. 


Mike & Deb Long

 

Mike and i enjoyed this weekend very much and would do it over again. we encourage everyone to attend it and become closer than ever to their spouse and learn more about them thanks for such a great weekend. 


Cornelius and Lisa Snorden

 

We were Encountered March 23-25, 2001, and what a Blessing it was and is! After 19 1/2 years of marriage, God has restarted us for a new season. As a ministring couple we had put on lots of masks, even mask for each other. Through our marriage encounter, God has helped us remove those mask and begin afresh with each other and in ministry. He has equipped us with new communicational tools to keep those masks off! We bless all those God has given this vision to and pray that his unlimited grace be upon them to continue in this endeavor. 


Lisa Mills

 

We are a lot more open and honest with eachother instead of holding our feelings in. Marriage Encounter has been a real blessing :o) Thank you for those who are facilitators--pouring out their innermost feelings to strangers. 


Joe and Linda Morris

 

Joe and I just had our Encounter weekend (Mar. 23-25, 2001) in Columbus, Ga. It was the most rewarding, most revolutionary event in our entire married life! Not only are Joe and I closer together as a result, but we are also drawing closer to the Lord. We have been so impacted by this weekend, that we want to become involved in this awesome ministry! Praise God for Marriage Encounter! It has literally transformed our relationship!


Teresa Guitron

 

My encounter weekend was indeed a chance to find hope in what God has for me. 


Anita Pinder

 

My husband and I were Encountered on March 16-18, 2001 at Fa-ho-lo Camp and Conference Center in Grass Lake Michigan. Our weekend was a new start, our relationship was good but with the tools we learned it's already a lot better. God's ways are productive, the world's ways are destructive. Our presenters made this point quite clear. God Bless the A.G.M.E. family.  


Tim and Roxanne Knott

 

ME was the best investment of a weekend that we have ever made for our marriage. We have been to other marriage retreats, and they were good, but this was something totally different, totally GOD, and totally annoited. In recent monthes we had face some very big challenges in our marriage, and needed something, anything to help move us, and heal us. ME did just that. The weekend was beautiful, and I fell head over heels in love with me wife again. The times of sharing, brought us closer than we had been in years. Since ME we have continued to use the tools that we learned, and look forward to time alone. We came back alive, and very much in love, and have encouraged many of our friends to get to ME, and will continue to do so for many years. Every one regardless of how long you have been married needs to get to ME. In my opinion it should be a required class for marriage, its that good. 


JT Poplawski

 

Really assisted us in communication skills!

We strongly recommend every married couple to attend an encounter weekend. We have used the skills we learned at our encounter to enrich our marriage. We are thankful that we took this opportunity to give God the power to reign in our marriage  


Don & Eileen Dunbar

 

I thank God and our Pastor for giving us the opportunity to attend the Marriage Encounter weekend. We were truly blessed and came home like two high school sweethearts with a new perspective on our marriage relationship. It was good before but it is better than ever now. We were more than blessed by the encounter.

God has worked wonders in my life and in my marriage. You just have to have faith in God to do what it is that He wants for you and your spouse.

Linda & Roy McMillan

 

We just began attending an Assemblies of God church and are so happey to see that there is an AG Marriage Encounter. We made an Encounter in the Catholic Church in 1995. 


David & Ann Bowers

 

We are so incredibly blessed this past weekend in Columbus, GA. We learned so much about how we can become best friends again without all of the judgment and critisim. We have gotten involved with our ME crew and love it. Thank you God for giving my best friend back to me. Ann in Columbus. I am learning how to better communicate my feelings with my wife. This is helping us build a stronger relationship and friendship. I am in love with Ann, and I know now I will never loose her. David in Columbus 


George, Karen Ganko

 

My wife and I have just completed an Marriage Encounter in CT. There are things that happen to our relationship that we just can't explain. We have been married for eleven years, we feel that we have an average marriage. But when we woke up on Monday morning we were in love, both of us felt like teenagers in their first love. Also there is not enough space here to describe what God has done in our spiritual life. A must for all couples that want a complete, life long relationship with their spouse. 


Chris & Tammy Lummus

 

We were "Encoutered" 4/29-31/00 in Dallas TX. Awesome experience! We have been married for 9 years and this has been the best thing that has happened to us. God is doing miricles through this ministry. We very highly recomend AGME to all married couples!


Aaron Duncan

 

We enjoyed our encounter so much! The gift you shared with us has enabled us to become more intimate. It was very surprising because it was so simple! Thank you for being faithful to God in sharing this gift with married couples everywhere! 


David & Sheryl Summers

 

We've only been married two years, but have had some intense struggles in the past year. Marriage Encounter has saved our marriage..teaching us the communication skills we need for a "best friend" relationship with each other. Our Encounter weekend was last weekend, but some big issues have come up in the few days since we've been back, and we were able to lovingly communicate with each other and settle the issues without a fight. We praise God for Marriage Encounter and would like to thank all the volunteers who make each weekend possible. We would recommend M.E. to any married couple - if you have a good marriage, it will make it better. If your marriage is having difficulty, as ours was, it could be the greatest gift you give each other!!!!! 


Tony and Michelle Clapp

 

We had our encounter about 21/2yrs ago.Welearned alot obout eachother and the goals for our marriage. We are still very active in Marriage Ecounter in our area. 


Tommy & Joanna Alligood

 

We just returned home Monday from our encounter and we must say that this is the best thing that has happened to us in the entire six years which we have been married.

Our weekend in Columbus, GA really opened our eyes to each other and to how much we have lack in our marriage. Though we still have to work on establishing a routine or reestablish our priorities to provide time for the techniques which we learned this weekend, we are determined to not let this gift escape us.

Thank so much to ME and to the presenting team which lead our encounter.


Chris and Paula Elam

 

Aa life changing event. i would recomend the marriage encooutner for everyone Praise the Lord!!!! 


Paul and Maria Santiago

 

We have attended the workshop and it was awesome. We would love to see the meetings take place aboard the Navy base where we live. 


Michelle Sutton

 

My husband and I just went to your encounter in Cromwell CT. We thought we had a good marriage. God showed us that it should be and could be and must be much much much better. The Lord blessed our socks off. And we feel that God wants us to share this with others. I felt like I married Jesus and felt all of the love that he has for me. It was awesome and I am truly thankful because a couple loved us enough to send us. Thank you for this ministries.


Brian & Sandi Massey

 

Sandi & I have just come back from our encounter and it has been nothing short of life changing! Though we've only been married a little over 2 years, our eyes were open to the potential our marriage could become. If you care about your spouse at all you will find a way to get away to M.E. You won't regret it!
