Retrouvaille for Troubled Marriages
-
"Before You Leave Your Marriage..."
Retrouvaille [‘retro- vī ]: means rediscovery or joyful reunion. The Retrouvaille program is a lifeline of hope and healing for struggling marriages of all ages…even couples who are separated or divorced but want to try again.
Retrouvaille is:- A three-phase program that begins with a weekend experience, followed by post-weekend presentations and monthly small group meetings that support growth and friendship.
- A peer ministry of couples helping couples. Couples who have been through crises leading to the brink of divorce share their stories and the tools they used to heal their marriage.
- Not counseling or group therapy. Participants reflect and discuss in complete privacy with their spouse. The program is often recommended by marriage counselors and family therapists.
- Christian-based and highly successful in helping couples of all faiths, as well as those who are non-religious, to reawaken the love, trust and commitment that originally brought them together in marriage.
- Self-supported and volunteer-run. Program costs are affordable and no couple is ever turned away because of any financial barrier.
- Available in communities worldwide. See website for other locations/dates. Central Wisconsin Retrouvaille hosts the program twice a year in the Wausau Area. (Feb & Aug) Register early! Space is limited.

Retrouvaille updateDue to the need for more volunteers and presenters, we are focusing our summer 2026 efforts on repurposing our usual August weekend to build up our community. The next program in the Wausau area will be held on Valentine’s weekend, February 12-14, 2027. We will reach out to you again several months in advance with bulletin announcements. In the meantime, there is good news and support for couples in need! One or more programs are being held nearly every month within driving distances in the region. Find program details, dates, testimonials and more helpful information on the newly updated website at HelpOurMarriage.org. Please see the “Clergy” tab for information and testimonials by priests and clergy couples, as well as the “Therapists” tab for therapists considering referring couples or to integrate Retrouvaille with therapy. In addition, for a pro-marriage resource with helpful tips and recommendations for strengthening marriages in general, please “follow” the Retrouvaille International FaceBook page.
