So my fiance and I filled out the FOCUS test form with my parish, and when we were finished the priest said that he would be in touch with us in the next couple of days so we could go over our answers. Flash forward a couple of weeks, and we still hadn't heard from him. I asked him after mass one Sunday about when we were supposed to meet, and he said that because none of our answers gave him cause for concern, we didn't need to meet for additional counseling.
This, combined with the pre-cana debacle (where the deacon in charge gave advice contrary to church teachings, and repeatedly stated that he knew we didn't want to be at pre-cana) makes me a bit concerned about the quality of premarital counseling in our parish.
Does anyone else have any similar experiences?
My fiance and I declined the invitation to attent the Engaged Encounter because of our prior experiences with the quality of premarital counseling in our parish...
