Celebrate World Marriage Day and National Marriage Week in the Diocese of Austin
Choose From Five Events Offered February 7 – 15, 2026
The Diocese of Austin, Worldwide Marriage Encounter and several parishes are partnering to offer couples the chance to deepen their sacrament during National Marriage Week and World Marriage Day weekend. During February 7-15, marriage enrichments entitled Together with Purpose/Juntos con Propósito will be offered around the diocese. They are designed for married couples to retreat from the busy, noisy, complex world and focus on each other to make their good marriages even better. Select the enrichment format that best fits your needs. Some enrichments are a half-day, closing with either Saturday anticipatory mass or Sunday mass at a parish, and some enrichments are evening programs. Cost is $30/couple and includes materials and refreshments. Catholic couples will share their stories of Together with Purpose/ Juntos con Propósito—inspiring you to grow, create and serve through your marriage sacrament.
Please pre-register as space is limited. Resources and registration links can be found below.
