Oct. 24th – Anthony and Stephanie – Archdiocese of Detroit, MI “It made me understand why we need God in our marriage”
Him: First off, having two people who take the time out of their day to help guide us and prepare us is a comforting thing. Some things I feel I knew but mostly everything was a learning experience, and I will keep this with me throughout our marriage. I had a ton of "a-ha moments" that really made sense almost is if I knew already in my heart.

Her: It was very thought provoking. It sparked discussions that we've never had before. I feel like we learned more about each other after these classes. It was nice to have guidance from another, more experienced, married couple in the church.

Both: It gave us a deeper understanding on what it means to be married in the Catholic Church.

Oct. 25th – Travis and JuliAnne – Diocese of Lafayette, LA “I was very impressed with this class and enjoyed coming closer together as a couple and closer to God”
Him: It made my relationship with God better and my faith in Him stronger. It also made me realize that those two together are what makes a marriage thrive.

Her: I appreciated the in-depth responses that our instructors gave us and how well we understood what we they had to offer us.

Both: This course and our instructor’s words will definitely stick with us for the entirety of our marriage.

Oct. 26th – Luke and Rebecca (Interfaith) – Archdiocese of Boston, MA “It makes me want to tell other couples the beauty of getting married in the church”
Him: As a non-Catholic I thought it was extremely formative and helpful for me to understand what it really means to get married in the church

Her: I loved it! I loved having these spiritual conversations with my fiancé, especially because he isn't catholic, it was such a blessing for him to understand the church more!

Both: We appreciated that we could go at our own pace and how in depth the feedback from our instructors was.

Oct. 27th – Eriberto and Janeth – Diocese of Fresno, CA “We were blessed to have been a part of this class”
Him: This class gave us a wonderful opportunity to learn about each other on a spiritual level. I have a better idea of what is required of me as a husband and what is required of us by God's church. This course was a true blessing.

Her: This course was time well spent together. We learned about one another on a deeper level. We are now equipped with the tools to build our relationship and our spirituality together. More than a course, this gave us roadblocks to continue to build out our pathways toward a good life together.

Both: We are committed, now more than ever, to going to mass and being active in our church.

Oct. 28th – David and Carolyn (Military) – Archdiocese of Washington D.C. "This course stressed the importance of prayer which is something I’m looking forward to doing more of together”
Him: Being in the military, we are grateful for the opportunity to virtually complete pre-cana! Our instructors were excellent and gave great feedback.

Her: The structure of the course covered important topics that connected us to resources, scriptures, and great God-centered instructors to give us advice

Both: The entire course was beneficial to spur conversation before the wedding. We appreciated the time spent together (while physically distant and a 3-hour time difference) to talk about God and the importance of God in our lives and marriage.
