We are Phillip & Eunice. We were married since 2007 and started serving in this wonderful love ministry in the same year. Serving together in CEE keeps us grounded as we are surrounded by like-minded couples who believe in marriage. We thank God for giving us the gift to serve him and the blessings and friendship we received over the years.
 
Besides serving in CEE, we serve at our parish and the Catholic Family Life. See you at one of the CEE weekends or activities. God Bless ~ Phillip & Eunice Goh (PEG)

We are Alan and Marie, and we started volunteering as House-couple, Prayer couple in 2002 , the year we got married. Being part of the Catholic Engaged Encounter Singapore community has given us the opportunity to deepen our faith and strengthened our own marriage as we served other couples preparing for a married life.

We have been presenting as a couple for the program since 2006. Doing God's work and serving His people has brought immense joy and grace to our lives. Blessed with three children we hope to embody the same values of servant leadership within our family. 

Married since 2012 and blessed with three children, Mervyn and Ashley joined Catholic Engaged Encounter (CEE) in 2020, starting as Prayer Letter and House Couple and later becoming part of the Presenting Team. Deeply grateful for the love and friendship they’ve found within the CEE community, they are dedicated to supporting couples preparing for marriage, believing that strong families are essential to building a healthy society.

As Weekend Operations Coordinators, Mervyn and Ashley oversee all logistical aspects of the weekends, from scheduling and food arrangements to setting up furniture for a welcoming and conducive environment. Outside of this role, they contribute to CEE through event planning and by serving in the Mass music team, thankful for every opportunity to share Christ’s love and to give back to a community that has greatly enriched their own lives.

David and Karen started volunteering in CEE after their marriage in 1995.  The Weekend they attended before that had such a strong impact on them that they felt the call to be involved.  Since then, they have found friendship and family in the community that helped ground them in their own relationship.  They have a grown-up son who not too long ago used to help them prepare for Weekends when they served as the then Setup Couple.
