This is to ensure that they have understood and agreed to the solemn promises that they will both be making before God, and to equip them to grow in their love and commitment to each other in spite of challenges they may encounter. A Marriage Preparation Resource Pack containing information about Marriage as well as Marriage Preparation Courses delivered in the Diocese is provided by parishes to engaged couples or by contacting the Diocesan Life Marriage and Family team on 98470502.
