 The Diocese of Madison's Marriage Preparation program is aimed at assisting engaged couples to fully understand the Church's beautiful vision of marriage and to equip them with the information and tools necessary to deal with the day to day joys and struggles of married life.  Each couple should begin their marriage preparation process by contacting their local parish.  The following links provide an overview of the journey you will undertake to look beyond the wedding day and on to the lifetime of joy that awaits you both.

Come Join the Marriage Prep Team!

The Diocese of Madison is looking for married couples to share their marriage and faith with newly engaged couples.  Interested married couples are invited to a Marriage Prep training session on Friday, March 27 at 6:30 to 9:30 p.m.  Couples interested in the God's Plan program will return on Saturday, March 28 from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. for additional program-specific training. 

For more information, go to How You Can Join the MP Team! or contact Andy Galvin at (608) 821-4517 or at andy.galvin@straphael.org

Help your marriage, help the marriages of many others, and help the Church build a culture of love and life.
