“Building a Eucharistic Marriage” Virtual Marriage Course

“Building a Eucharistic Marriage” Virtual Marriage Course


DATES: Thursday (and one Tuesday) starting July 29th to Aug. 5, 12, 19, 26, Sept. 2, and 7, 2021
TIME: 6:30 to 8:30PM
COST: $30 per couple
 
This class is designed to help couples in making the Eucharist the center and source of their marital love; whether they have been married for years, are newly married, or are preparing to marry. The goal of this course is to help couples to fall more deeply in love with each other as well as with our Eucharistic Lord. We will focus on seven habits for building a healthy marriage that also beautifully correspond to seven aspects of the Mass that draw us deeper into knowing and loving God in and through the Eucharist.
 
These seven habits will be the focus of the seven weeks of this class. Each habit (or step) is designed to keep us connected, to humble our heart, and to teach us about sacrificial love. In brief, the seven steps or habits, both for marriage and for our participation in the Eucharistic sacrifice, are:
 
1) Making time and spending time together
2) Understanding the divine design for the sacrament
3) Looking within and admitting our failings
4) Active listening
5) Giving and seeking forgiveness
6) Living out what we profess
7) Feeding and being fed
