Marriage Courses

- Pre-Marriage Courses
  
  Please note: If either person has had a previous marriage you must speak to your parish priest as soon as possible. This applies even if your previous spouse has died, or if the previous marriage did not take place in the Catholic Church.
  
  We suggest that you contact your parish priest a minimum of six months before the date you wish to marry.
  Pre-marriage courses are held throughout the diocese, at different times throughout the year. You can register for a pre-marriage course when you meet with your pastor. For further information or phone the Family Ministry Office 613 548-4461.
