Walking with Engaged Couples

While marriage is intended to be a lifelong journey toward Our Father with the companionship of our chosen partner, this focus is often confused by our own unique experiences. Marriage preparation is intended to help each couple step back from their emotions to take an honest look at what they are about to enter into, and to evaluate their readiness for this journey.

Join with other mature couples to help engaged couples prepare for marriage.

  • Administer the FOCCUS Inventory to engaged couples.
  • Lead discussion questions that encourage couples to explore all areas of married life such as faith, religion, finances, values, communication, problem solving, sexuality, natural family planning, etc.
  • Host the marriage preparation seminars given at St. Mel.
  • Continue the journey with newly married couples after their wedding in a couples support group.
