Pre-Cana

Are you and your Spouse looking for a way to Grow your Faith, together?

Consider joining the SS Cosmas and Damian Pre-Cana Team.

We strive to bring attention to the meaning and value of marriage by fostering an understanding that sacramental marriage extends beyond the wedding day. We do this by establishing a relationship between Catholic values and beliefs and everyday life with presentations and dialog on communication, the masks we wear, finance and The Sacrament of Marriage.

“To live faithfully in a marriage requires humility, trust, compromise, communication, and a sense of humor.” (Follow the Way of Love, USCCB)

“Love does not consist of gazing at each other but in looking outward together in the same direction.” (Antoine De Saint-Exuprey).

A Pre-Cana Day is presented yearly by a team of volunteer married couples who help prepare engaged couples for the sacrament of Matrimony by sharing their faith and life experiences with the intention of enabling engaged couples to become more aware of their sacramental responsibilities in marriage.

“Love is not simply a feeling, but a decision.” (Marriage Encounter Principle)

“A successful marriage is one in which you fall in love many times – always with the same person.” (D. W. McLaughlin)

Join Us, if you are feeling called to share a part of your day-to-day married life in Christ, consider becoming a Pre-Cana Team couple. You and your spouse will work with engaged couples preparing for the Sacrament of Marriage.

We typically meet on Friday evenings from February to April so as to not make for much of a time commitment.

We enjoy a true team spirit and in addition to our Pre-Cana Day and preparation, we meet informally throughout the rest of the year to bond and discuss improving our ministry.

To express interest or for more information, please contact Pre-Cana team members Kevin or Amanda Clune.
