CHOICE

We hope to impress the young working adults on:

– what belonging in a relationship is. A relationship with God, family and the community.

– to encourage them in the ongoing mission of the church and to get them involved in definite and specific apostolic ventures.

– to foster and create an environment in which the single young adult can trust others and can talk very personally with peers and older Catholic adults.

All this helps to promote the experience that the young adult has of the relationships formed in the group.

COUPLE MENTOR JOURNEY

What does it take to “love” and “honour” someone “in good times and in bad … all the days” of your life? Are you prepared to go through difficult times with your partner? The Couple Mentor Journey (CMJ) is an initiative designed to help couples to dedicate more time to prepare for the real challenges of marriage, by learning from the lived experience of their couple mentors.

The CMJ programme is a parish-based programme that integrates contemporary relationship psychology with Catholic theology, offering an effective and powerful experience for engaged couples and newly married couples.

Whether you are preparing for marriage, or a newly wedded couple, learn from the joys and challenges of more experienced married couples, be challenged to live an authentic love relationship centered on Christ, and build a firm foundation for your new life together..

MARRIAGE PREPARATION COURSE

The Marriage Preparation Course (MPC) is a Catholic programme which was formed in 1983 to help couples intending to marry. Often couples enter into marriage ill-prepared; consequently, we see a rising number of broken marriages and unfulfilled relationships.

Our Church places great importance on the sanctity

of marriage and the impact that good spousal relationships have on overall family life and society.

Therefore, MPC exists to assist couples prepare meaningfully for their married lives together as husband and wife, as future parents and as members of our Christian community.
