The Marriage Preparation Program is for engaged couples who plan to be married in the church. A priest/deacon, marriage coordinator or a satisfied couple who have already experienced the benefits of the program usually refer those interested to us. The program offers input from the viewpoint of married couples and clergy. The focus is on the importance of understanding both the commitment required and the development of skills needed in living out the covenant of a sacramental marriage. The first session provides an opportunity for the couples to discuss honestly with each other, with facilitators and peers, issues associated with family living, communication, finances, the Christian understanding of sexuality, the sacrament of Matrimony and the role of married couples in both Church and society.

SPIRITUAL LEMONS:
Writing Midrash as a Spiritual Practice

March 24, 2012

10:00 A.M. - 3:00 P.M.

This retreat day will focus on biblical women and their hidden voices in the Bible. We will also access our own hidden or buried voices. The idea behind Spiritual Lemons is that God blesses what we would condemn, or declare a "lemon". Lemony issues are not exclusive to women, therefore men, who also have rich inner stories and plenty of "lemons" are most welcome. It promises to be enlightening for couples, too.

Rev. Lyn Brakeman
