Beginning a marriage is perhaps the most important step that people take in their lives. It is an event for which life often prepares us poorly. While love is the foundation of marriage, love alone cannot be our only preparation for marriage, for married life may be difficult and may feel "less-than-loving", at times. The Church cares deeply for couples entering the Sacrament of Marriage and offers these Pre-Cana sessions as part of the preparation for your life together. These marriage preparation sessions will assist you in discovering within your relationship those significant areas of strength and uniqueness upon which to build a lasting, loving marriage.
What will take place at these sessions?
Pre-Cana is 7 hours in length. Married volunteer couples facilitate the sessions drawing from and sharing with you experiences from their own marriage in the areas of communication, family life and Natural Family Planning (NFP). You'll be asked to listen to presentations on these topics, to do written exercises from a workbook, to participate in small-group discussions and to engage in personal sharing with your future spouse.
