April 15th – William and Jazmin (Interfaith) – Diocese of Pueblo, CO “I appreciated all the details that our instructors gave us, it showed that they paid a lot of attention to us”

Him: As someone who is not Catholic, I appreciated the lessons and insight into what the Catholic Church taught on marriage and everything. I think that this course seemed like a good over view of the faith and I feel that it allowed for myself and my fiancée to grow closer as we prepped for our marriage.

Her: I appreciated all the supplemental materials that our instructors provided. It gave me great insight as to how we can talk about my faith and I feel as though Kyle was supported in the class. I also really enjoyed all the prompts for us I felt as though we got closer.

Both: This course allowed us as a couple to discuss things that we had not originally discussed. Furthermore, it provided lessons on difficult topics that once again fueled discussions between us and allowed for further development of our relationship. It also allowed us to get an idea of what to expect as we partake in our new marriage.
