What We’re About
We believe God gifts us with the love of our partner, and that we’re called to a lifelong journey of growing to know and love each other more fully. Our sacrament is a living thing for none of us ever stays the same. We are either growing closer or growing apart, and experience both. We realize that good marriages don’t just happen—they take work! Marriage Ministry provides opportunities for engaged and married couples to reflect on their relationship and experience support within their faith community.
What Do We Do?
Marriage Preparation for Engaged Couples
Marriage Preparation Days - Married couples share their lived experiences of marriage and lead engaged couples to look at various areas of their own relationships.
Administer FOCCUS premarital inventory to groups of engaged couples. Review FOCCUS results in one-on-one setting to discuss strengths and growth areas with engaged couple.
Marriage Enrichment for Married Couples
Marriage Enrichment programs to challenge couples to keep growing together and deepen their relationship, and to show that our community is a source of encouragement and support.
Our Celebration of Marriage Mass with Renewal of Vows and Reception is a wonderful way couples can celebrate the gift God has given them in each other and also celebrate our collective anniversaries as a community.
Want to Become Part of the Marriage Team?
We meet as a Team once a month for planning, formation, support, and developing a sense of community. Beyond that, the commitment is flexible, depending upon which aspect of the ministry you decide to take part in.
Let’s get together to talk about it!
