MARRIAGE HELPERS

We are looking to get more parishioners involved with marriage preparation.
We have the following areas of opportunity:
  1. *Administer and Discuss Prepare/Enrich Survey* (an online survey that helps couples rate their agreement on important topics, and helps us guide them through those conversations).
  2. *Rehearsal Coordinator* (hosts rehearsals for weddings of visiting priests and occasionally for Holy Ghost priests, leading couples through the practice and making notes for wedding day setup).
  3. *Wedding Day Host* (provides physical access to bride's and groom's room, sets up furniture and liturgical items for the Mass, and interfaces with wedding party, photographers, and wedding coordinators, as well as supplementing wedding ushers).
  4. *Natural Family Planning teaching (CCLI)* (lead the course for engaged couples to learn the techniques of fertility awareness and the Catholic perspective on discerning God's will about having children).
  5. *Annulment Advocate* (assists persons seeking a declaration of nullity from the church following a civil divorce; requires training from the archdiocese in canon law and the procedures of filing for nullity of marriage).
If this sounds like you, please fill out the form below for consideration. Thank you!
