Course Reviews

From Couples Who Enjoyed Online Pre-Cana

Considering we live on opposite sides of the country, this was the perfect program for us to take part in. 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, and we are more confident in seeking His Will first as we approach the wedding day.

“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. I would recommend this to other couples that have a crazy busy lifestyle.”

We really enjoyed the newer videos and speaking candidly with each other in our safe space.

It was a wonderful experience and extremely enjoyable. The flexibility to log on freely was greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Everyone was wonderful! I loved what the priest talked about!

This course covered a lot of important topics that we need to consider as we prepare for our life together. 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.

Mariana and George – Married in Nova Scotia, Canada

I have heard from all those before me, these classes are a waste of time. It seems to me, they were wrong! Perhaps it had something to do with being online.

You can sit quietly, together or separately (geographic barrier), or over the phone with your fiancé, at the time that works best for you – really taking time (while having a cup a tea) to fill in your notes/questionnaire after each segment. I enjoyed it further, not being rushed or influenced by others around you but really focusing on truthful self-reflection. As they say, if not now, when? I thought this course was very good. I liked having different facilitators on each segment who were able to share valuable information in their own field of expertise.

An overwhelming YES, I will definitely recommend this course. The problem is, most parishes require in-person Pre-Cana to be completed; I think this is a shame since I got so much out of this. I watched it twice. Once on my own, and again with my fiancé during one of our visits together (we are long distance). Though it was a chore for him, he agrees it was not a waste a time. And I certainly agree, to the surprise of all who came before me and attended their parishes’ Pre-Cana courses!

Thank you to everyone involved, who helped facilitate our learning & listening through this course. Thank you for the blessings and wishing everyone many more in return.

“It was great to be able to do this in the comfort of our home and be able to talk freely about the topics. We both have very busy schedules so to be able to pause and take a break for a little was also very nice.

It was great to learn more about these topics and get a full understanding of the topics that I have heard about but didn’t have much knowledge, like NFP.”

My fiancé and I enjoyed this marriage prep program. Since we are both currently living in different states, this program allowed us to complete our marriage preparation at our convenience. The videos allowed us to think about our our lives and what we want for the future. I liked how we were able to discuss our feelings together in a private setting. The videos were filled with a lot of great, helpful information that will help us with our future as a married couple.”

This marriage prep program was perfect for my fiancé and I!

We could move along at our own pace and discuss things as we went along. We were able to plan for nights to just sit and put our full energy and focus on the videos.

We felt that we were able to get much more out of the program by choosing when we were going to work on it.

We took the marriage course online because we work every weekend.

It was nice to be able to go over the course in a relaxed environment that provoked discussion, rather than rushing through and just getting it done.

It was nice to go at our own pace allowing for our everyday tasks to still be completed. We were a lot more comfortable talking among the two of us about these personal topics rather than in a group. We were able to spend more time on the topics that we felt we needed to.

We enjoyed being able to do the online course in a private setting so that we could openly discuss anything that came up while watching each segment.

Our big day is right around the corner and we are so glad to have been able to take the class that you all provided, it was very beneficial to our upcoming marriage.
