Marriage Preparation Day — 06 October

MP DAY

Our next Marriage Preparation Day will be on Saturday, 06 October 2018, from 10:00 – 16:00 at the Centre Jean XXIII near Kirchberg.

This course is for couples preparing for marriage: it’s not about preparing you for the ceremony itself, but for the rest of your married life together. These days have been both popular and highly rated; input is given by trained Marriage Preparation presenters, and as couples you have an opportunity also to share your own experience of life together.

The course is for Catholic and non-Catholic partners.

Exceptionally (due to scheduling issues, for example) you can take the course after your church wedding. If you wish to register for the October date, please see contact details below. To cover costs, we ask €75 from each couple; if this is beyond your means, no problem — again, just get in touch. Refreshments and a sandwich lunch are provided.

Our October course will be presented by members of our English-speaking parish, in association with MarriageCare UK.

 

To register, or for questions, please contact our parish Administrative Assistant, Nicola

Thank you,

Fr Ed

(re parish : strictly speaking, of course, the English-speaking Catholic Community does not constitute a parish — we are part of the Parish of Luxembourg Notre-Dame, which is made up of the city centre communities and various language groupings. The term parish, however, is too convenient to give up, so we use it in an informal, non-canonical sense).
