SUMMARY:Love is a Decision (marriage preparation course)
DESCRIPTION:The Commit / Love is a Decision programme is designed to be completed by the couple together in person\, one after the other in Wellington. By doing both of these courses\, couples are involved in a comprehensive programme to prepare for the Sacrament of Marriage. \nThis course is open to couples of any or mixed faith\, not only for Catholics. \nMarried couples present the in-person course and facilitate the Commit Questionnaire with you. \nThe focus of each step of the programme is about discussions between the couple\, spending time without distractions and in a relaxed neutral setting\, prompting useful discussions between you and your partner\, on important topics\, things like your unique differences as individuals\, your family of origin and early learning about relationships\, continuing to build a life together and your shared values\, maintaining healthy communications and ways of managing conflict\, and continuing to grow your already thriving relationship.\nThe Commit Questionnaire simply identifies areas that could use more discussion between you. The in-person course delves into useful topics. The couples facilitating the course will share and discuss insights of the realities\, challenges and joys of marriage in each of the areas. \nWhen you register for the “Love is a Decision” face to face course\, you are automatically registered for the Commit Questionnaire introductory programme. An Archdiocesan Marriage Educator will contact you directly to complete the Commit course before you attend the face to face group course “Love is a Decision”. The total cost is $130.00 per couple. \nA certificate of completion is issued following the completion of the course. \nIf you wish to put your name down for a future course before registration is open please email the Marriage Ministries Coordinator at marriage@wn.catholic.org.nz \nThe Marriage preparation course COMMIT runs from 1 February to 30 November each year. \nIf you are unable to attend a Love is a Decision Course or you have any questions\, please contact the Marriage Ministries Coordinator at marriage@wn.catholic.org.nz or (04) 496 1719 to discuss. \nFor more information about Commit click here. \nFor more information about Love is a Decision click here.
