Background National Marriage Encounter is a confederation of local groups offering weekend retreats (marriage encounters) for married couples. The movement began in the 1950s in Spain as the Encuentro Conjugal under the direction of its founder Father Gabriel Calvo and spread to the United States under the aegis of the Christian Family Movement in 1967. A national organization was founded in 1969 and later split into two separate groups: National Marriage Encounter (tracing its origins to the Calvo group) and Worldwide Marriage Encounter (an alternative group under the direction of Father Charles Gallagher of New York).
