“….my husband and I attended this seminar last year and it was AMAZING.  It is a small group and there is lots of time to break out as a couple to talk and connect.  The presenter, Carrie, is terrific.  Both he and I agreed that it was a day very well spent AND we walked away with some new skills for communicating effectively as a couple.  I highly recommend this seminar for anyone interested in making their marriage better and stronger (and who doesn't want to do that?!).”

Make Your Second Marriage A Success!

     

The Alpha Omega Clinic is offering a diocesan-approved 10 sessions marriage preparation course just for you and your future spouse.  These sessions are specifically designed for couples who are re-marrying after an annulment, following the death of a spouse, or are con-validating their marriage.

Give your second union the best gift you can — essential, practical information to build a vital and dynamic marriage. Ten classes provide confidential, focused work as well as coaching on new skills to enhance your relationship.

“The issues facing couples entering a second marriage are more complex than first marriages. Although many people who divorce have successful subsequent marriages, the divorce rate of remarriages is higher than that of first marriages. Preparation should be more comprehensive.” —United States Conference of Catholic Bishops

 The courses include these topics:
  • Family of Origin
  • Strengthening appreciation through better communication
  • Integrating the children into the blended family
  • Money and marriage
  • The sacramentality  of marriage
  • The in-laws and
  • Building trust
