Marriage Preparation Course

Marriage Preparation Course

Our next Marriage Preparation Day will be on Saturday, 17 February 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 February date, please contact me and I will subscribe you. 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 February course will be presented by Lisa & Glenn Zasman of our English-speaking parish.

Parking Alert, Sunday 14th Jan.

There is no vehicle access to the parking at St Alphonse today, Sunday January 14th. Road works mean that there is no access to rue Goergen from the Cote d’Eich, rue Beaumont is closed, and access through the gates into the garden/parking is limited to pedestrians.

This closure was not foreseen to continue into Sunday — sincere apologies for inconvenience caused — my own car is trapped inside so I can’t escape from church!

Parking closed Saturday

We have just received notice (Saturday evening, 13th January) that the parking at St Alphonse is closed this evening, due to road works in rue Goergen. Apologies for the late notice — the parking was expected to be available from 16:00, but in the event this is not the case. The parking should be available tomorrow (Sunday) as usual.
