Marriage Prep, also called Pre-Cana, is a one-day class designed to prepare engaged couples to lovingly live out the Sacrament of Matrimony. Within an informal, engaging atmosphere, married couples from St. Jude impart advice, techniques, and insights that enable the engaged couples to enhance their mutual understanding, facilitate communication, deepen their love, nurture their faith, and appreciate the responsibilities to which a lifetime commitment of marriage calls them. The classes are held twice a year and are required for couples planning a wedding.
 
Here is what some couples had to say about our Pre-Cana program:

• "This was so great! I wish similar workshops were available for couples married 5, 10, 50 years!"
• "Great job! Very down to earth! Enjoyed it a lot!"
• "I enjoyed hearing the personal stories of what makes a lifelong marriage."

Pre-Cana is open to couples from any parish. Please contact the parish office if you have any questions or to register for a class.

Next upcoming class: Saturday, October 21, 2023
Future dates: February 17, 2024 and April 13, 2024
