Tobit Weekend helps engaged couples
grow in love

Tobit Weekends are retreats designed to help engaged couples make their Christian marriage a success.

Mentor couples and a priest conduct the marriage preparation course at Our Lady of Fatima Retreat House, 5353 E. 56th St., in Indianapolis throughout the year.

The Tobit brochure describes the retreat as “a sacred time, set aside for the two of you to explore how well you complement each other, ... discuss your strengths and weaknesses, and practice techniques of communication.”

The brochure explains that the weekend is “an investment in your relationship that takes you away from the tensions and demands of daily life … . Time in this ­environment gives you a unique opportunity to grow in your knowledge and love of one another.”

Tobit Weekends for the remainder of the year are scheduled on July 22-24, Sept. 16-18, Oct. 21-23 and Nov. 11-13.

No weekend is scheduled in August or December.

The 2006 Tobit Weekend schedule at Our Lady of Fatima Retreat House is Jan. 13-15, Jan. 27-29, Feb. 24-26, April 21-23, May 19-21, June 16-18, July 21-23, Sept. 15-17, Oct. 20-22 and Nov. 17-19.

No weekend is scheduled in March, August or December next year.

The fee of $270 per couple includes accommodations, meals and programs.
