Preparing for Marriage
The decision to marry is a lifelong commitment to one another and to the faith community of the Church. This covenant relationship is permanent, exclusive and open to life. Couples are called to give their decision careful consideration. God’s Plan for Marriage is designed to deepen a couple’s awareness of the challenges of living a Christian marriage. Through discussions and presentations by married couples, participants learn to plan for their future in the light of God’s grace. Understanding marriage as designed by God will build the bonds for an enduring love.
Segments include:
- Origin of Marriage as a Sacrament
- Total Mutual Self-Giving
- Wisdom in Decision Making
- True Spirit of Communication
- Openness to Life and Family
