Common questions.

If you're engaged, start with Pre-Cana. It's our complete marriage prep course, and it already includes NFP Life® and the Couple Checkup. If you took Pre-Cana in-person or online without NFP education, choose NFP Life® on its own. Married, or ready to keep growing? Marriage Every Day® is for you.

Yes! Many couples log in from different cities or time zones and use video calling to discuss the materials. Each lesson includes prompts and discussion guides so you can talk every topic through, wherever you are.

Pre-Cana and NFP Life® include a full year of access, so you can revisit lessons long after you finish. Marriage Every Day® is a monthly membership you can cancel anytime.

Our courses are promoted by the USCCB and the Bishops' Conference of England and Wales, and accepted in parishes and dioceses worldwide. It is a marriage course Catholic Church leaders have recommended for years, but every parish sets its own requirements, so check with your priest or marriage prep coordinator before you register.

Stories from couples like you.

We were given all the information we needed in an engaging way, and it challenged us to have conversations about more than we initially expected. It also helped us better integrate our understanding of God's design for this vocation...

Shawn & Megan

We feel more comfortable with the topics we have already discussed and now we know what areas we need to work on in order to make this a strong loving faithful marriage.

Brian & Kilee

10/10 – this Pre-Cana course was amazing! It gave us the flexibility to complete sessions at night after work, at our own pace. We also felt very comfortable having deep conversation as we did not have anyone else around...

Helen & Patrick

We loved the idea that it was online. Both Ken and I have crazy schedules and this was very helpful; it allowed us to work at our own pace and time.

LeeAnn & Ken

This format allowed us to go at our own pace and really have deeper conversations rather than just scratching the surface trying to squeeze everything in in one day.

James & Lacey

This Pre-Cana and NFP program far exceeded our expectations. The video courses sparked deep, meaningful discussions, making the experience truly enriching for both of us. We wholeheartedly recommend it to any couple preparing for marriage!
