Marriage Preparation Ministry

If you are interested in becoming a mentor couple or learning more about it, please contact John or Marise Petry.  See contact info above.

Dear Engaged Couple,

Welcome and congratulations on your recent engagement! We are so excited for you become one through the Sacrament of Marriage in the Catholic Church!  

Be Sure to Contact our Pastor First  

Fully Engaged Marriage Preparation 

Here at Church of the Resurrection we are offering a program called "Fully Engaged" which follows up on your marriage inventory check list by assigning a mentor couple to assist you in exploring your answers and what the Catholic Church says about marriage.  You will be assigned a mentor couple after the inventory is completed by both the bride and groom.

Pre-Cana 

We invite you to register for Pre-Cana or for Engaged Encounter through the diocesan website; you may click on the Diocese logo above.

The Pre-Cana is scheduled on Saturday. “Living God’s Plan for a Joy-Filled Marriage” and “God’s Plan for a Joy-Filled Marriage”

A team of married couples will share some of their experiences in Christian marriage with you.  Group presentations are followed by “couple time” for each of you to complete a short activity and couple discussion privately with your partner.

We look forward to meeting each of you soon.

Sincerely,
John and Marise and The Church of the Resurrection Marriage Preparation Team
