Nov. 4th – Josh and Abbey – Diocese of Belleville, IL “I really feel like we both learned a lot not only within our religion but also techniques and skills that we can apply to our everyday lives in order to carry out a more successful marriage in years to come.”

Him: This was an excellent way to work on our catholic prep work on our own privately at our own pace. It allowed us time to think about answers and discuss things prior to filling out the assignments to turn into our instructors.

Her: I loved the one-on-one support from our leaders and that we were able to take things at our own pace to complete this course with our incredibly busy lives!

Both: It has not only made us feel more comfortable communicating but also makes us think more before we say how we feel so we can be patient with our partner and practice active listening more! 

Nov. 5th – Terrence and Therese – Diocese of Pensacola-Tallahassee, FL “The discussions were insightful, and we learned how to deepen our relationship with God in our family”

Him: We are beyond grateful for this marriage prep course! It not only covered the practical aspects of marriage but also has enriched our spiritual lives. I really enjoyed the discussions on communication and conflict resolution. We feel more prepared, united, and excited for our future together.

Her: I am very satisfied with how this course has helped us prepare for our marriage. The questions and the teachings were rooted deeply in our faith, and provided deep insights into the sacrament of marriage. To our instructors, thank you so much for your incredible knowledge. We are leaving this course feeling more prepared and connected, and are very excited for our future together.

Both: The course provided us a space for us to talk openly about important topics we hadn't yet discussed in depth. The questions and exercises helped us understand each other better, and we began to see our individual strengths and challenges. We feel more confident that we will be able to navigate them throughout our marriage.

Nov. 6th – Kevin and Courtney – Archdiocese of New Orleans, LA “The wisdom of our instructors is what I appreciated most”

Him: This course was great. It pushed us to have some deep and sometimes tough conversations about our life and our faith. I feel like it brought us much closer and has us ready to create a life together!

Her: I enjoyed going through these lessons and having conversations about my future relationship in the church. It was incredibly helpful to have a Catholic couple to guide us through the process and shine light on deeper insight. 

Both: We had conversations that were prompted by situations that may have not come up in our relationship for a while, until a problem was relevant, and we now feel better prepared to deal with these problems and have hard conversations preemptively. 

Nov. 7th – Brent and Jennifer – Archdiocese of New York, NY “It reminded me of how important it is to keep faith at the center of our relationship and daily life”

Him: I appreciated how comprehensive the course was and the way it encouraged deep reflection. The structure made it easy to stay engaged and understand the material.

Her: The course is very thorough and provides ample opportunities for reflection. The lessons are well-structured and engaging, making it easy to follow and absorb the material. However, some lessons feel a bit too long at times, which can be challenging to manage.

Both: The course process has definitely helped us communicate better and share more deeply as a couple. The structured questions and discussions encouraged us to talk about important topics that we might not have addressed otherwise.

Both: It certainly helped us have more faith in God.
