Catholic Marriage Prep

A GREAT RESOURCE!

CatholicMarriagePrep.com is a great resource for helping to prepare couples for the Sacrament of Matrimony. What I love about this program is that couples learn the Church’s understanding of Marriage as revealed by God. It is rooted in Scripture and Tradition. Not only that but the couples interact with solid Catholic married couples in discussing and completing the lessons. It is self-paced but not self-taught. I have been using CatholicMarriagePrep.com for several years now and it has blessed my couples in deepening their faith and equipping them with the skills they need from another married couple who loves and practices their faith. A tremendous blessing for both the priest who is preparing the couple and for the couple themselves.

Give it a try. You will not be disappointed!

QUALITY!

It's a relief to refer couples with challenging schedules to an online course for their marriage preparation that doesn't sacrifice quality. In fact, I believe the robust curriculum and one-on-one format of CatholicMarriagePrep.com often provides a better experience for the couples I marry. It's also the only program I know, in-person or online, that provides me with feedback specific to the couple. I highly recommend this as a resource for parish priests.

Congratulations on your 20th anniversary!

I have only been referring couples to CatholicMarriagePrep.com for a few years, but so far, I have only heard positive feedback when I have follow-up meetings with engaged couples. They report that the sessions were rewarding and that the best part was the positive feedback they received from the Catholic couples they dealt with. Not only does this program help couples understand the sacramental nature of marriage, but it also helps them learn how to practice their faith as a family. Another plus to the CatholicMarriagePrep.com program is that couples have the flexibility to finish the course at their own pace. These days, more and more couples have conflicting work schedules so it can be hard for them to schedule classes together. Couples always smile when I ask, “How did CatholicMarriagePrep.com work for you?”

I look forward to referring more engaged couples to CatholicMarriagePrep.com in the future.

Catholic Marriage Prep has supported our parish marriage ministry over the years by providing a solid and spiritual online option for marriage preparation.
I first used it back when we had to navigate military deployments to the Middle East. It allowed us to continue to prepare a good number of deserving couples for the Sacrament of Matrimony.
Most recently, Catholic Marriage Prep helped us get through the years of the pandemic and was a great help when we weren’t able to meet together in groups for marriage preparation.
The lead couples are always well-prepared and motivated to help the engaged couples consider all the most important aspects of the Sacrament they are hoping to celebrate on their wedding day and to live out for the rest of their lives.
I continue to offer Catholic Marriage Prep in our parish as an option in English and Spanish to help prepare our engaged couples for the celebration of the Sacrament of Matrimony.

I am very grateful for their help with this very important ministry.

I am pleased to generously endorse Catholic Marriage Prep.com as I have relied on the program for many years. The couples preparing for Holy Matrimony have found the process enlightening and engaging as they grow in a loving relationship with Christ and deepen their love for one another. As Pope Saint John Paul II’s Theology of the Body has influenced me in ways beyond expression, this foundation of Catholic Marriage Prep helps in forming men and women to understand, embrace, and live authentic love and responsibility, and to embrace their married lives as a self-gift to each other. As priests and pastors, we owe those entrusted to our care excellent, faithful to the truth, and proven formation. Catholic Marriage Prep.com assists us in fulfilling our responsibility to the young men and women preparing for marriage in the Church.

I ask God’s continued blessings on this valuable ministry.

Le point de départ est la personne...

Avec Catholic marriage prep, le point de départ est la personne, ce qu'elle est fondamentalement, ce qu'elle exprime de Dieu à travers sa capacité à aimer. La vocation à aimer, inscrite dans le cœur de chacun, est éclairée par le Christ tout au long du parcours. La présence du Christ n'est pas seulement un "aspect de l'engagement", c'est lui qui éclaire l'amour du couple, le transfigure, l'appelle à être encore plus grand de jour en jour.
Partir de la personne c’est partir de toute sa dimension humaine, spirituelle, affective, sexuelle, psychologique. Toutes ces dimensions sont transformées par le Christ dans le sacrement de mariage et donc toutes ces dimensions sont à intégrer dans la vie du couple. Aucune n’est une option, c'est le choix de Catholic marriage prep et c'est une excellente chose !
