Segment 3 – Couple Prayer
Ken and Signe Castel had a successful visit to “Catholic Connection” last week so they returned right before Valentine’s Day to remind us about Couple Prayer. They are speaking at St. Thomas the Apostle in Grand Rapids tonight and on April 15th they begin a 6-week series at Our Lady of Good Counsel in Plymouth.

Ken and Signe Castel have been married over 45 years and have three adult children and 7 living grandchildren. Active in numerous ministries throughout their marriage, they first began praying together in 2007 when, as Signe puts it, “there was a disconnect” in their relationship. Almost immediately they both noticed a softer, gentler tone in their relationship. Meaningful, intimate communication became much more common between them as they experienced God breathing new life into their marriage. From that moment on they were hooked and sought after opportunities to share the great news of the blessings of a Christ Centered marriage that praying together leads to.
