A married couple works one on one with an engaged couple to help them successfully transition to a lifetime of living and loving together in the sacrament of matrimony. This process includes 6 two-hour sessions which take place in the home of the married couple and are spaced out over 3-6 months.  Couples who wish to work in this ministry go through a one day training program offered by the Archdiocese. They are given manuals with the topics to cover and step-by step guidance.
