We were really struggling finding a pastor and now we have the option of two and begin our pre-marital counseling on the 28th!!!!! The pastor said our classes will be for 6month's every Saturday from 10am-12pm, we weren't expecting if to be for so long but hey we have a CHECK! Is anyone else going to pre-martial classes?
Once in awhile,right in the middle of an ordinary life, love gives us a fairy tale.

[QUOTE]FI and I are doing pre-marital counseling with our Catholic priest. We have met with him several times. taken the FOCCUS survey and discussed our results, and we are going on an Engaged Encounter next weekend. All required by the church but SO beneficial. I know a lot of people who feel that this is a waste of time, but our experience was that it gave us so much confidence that we have had the "big talks" we needed to have, and are totally in sync. It's been awesome.

That's so great to hear, I've been really excited to take the classes because I feel it will give us a stronger foundation and a greater communication level.Every relationship can learn more about what it takes to make a marriage work.
[QUOTE]I live in the Philadelphia area and my Parish accepts the pre canna classes that are offered online so FI and I will be signing up for those shortly! He works on weekends so this really helps us out!

Can you give me more information on the online classes? Is everything in text or will you need to listen to some stuff?
We would like to have something like this (online) because it's quite difficult to find and pay for an interpreter for the counseling- we aren't required to have one, but we would like to do one. We've been using workbooks from the bookstore, but I don't know if that's enough. And not to mention we'd save $100 on our license!
