Pre-Marital Counseling Program

The Pre-Marital Counseling program consists of the following seven steps:

1. Schedule a meeting with one of our parish priests. Contact the parish office for more information.
2. Complete the on-line Fully Engaged pre-marital inventory. This should be provided to you by the parish priest or you can contact the Coordinator of Married Life at the Diocese of Raleigh for more information.
3. Attend either a one-day Marriage Preparation Workshop or 2-day Weekend for Engaged Couples workshop.

6. An individual meeting will be scheduled with the music director to confirm the selection of prayers, scripture readings and music.
