Getting married in 2012? Remember, the Catholic Church requires at least 6 months for marriage preparation! Sign up for one of the 2012 Saturday for Engaged Couples.

The Saturday for Engaged Couples is a one-day, all-day process exploring the meaning of marriage from a Roman Catholic perspective. Marriage is understood as "a covenant of irrevocable personal commitment between a man and a woman that is permanent and exclusive." In this process, the emphasis is on covenant and the commitment of two persons who create a community of life together through the sharing of the whole person -- physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual.

 

Structure of the Day

Throughout the day, the nature of marital commitment is explored through presentations, couple exercises and group discussion. To encourage interaction, engaged couples are grouped by age and faith background and seated at tables facilitated by married couples.
