October 25^th- Ryan and Angelina – Diocese Philadelphia, PA “It renewed my desire to get closer to God”

Him: Taking this course has made me realize how much God is a part of my life. It made you think about a lot of things that aren't talked about daily/regularly. I feel more connected to Angelina and most importantly God after taking this course.

Her: God has always been a very important part of my life. This course however made that connection even stronger. You don't realize how much he's a part of your life because we are busy all day. Being able to slow life down and sit and read these readings and be asked these questions really was a pleasure.
Both: This course asked some tough questions and we had to ask each other the same. It definitely helped improve our communication about those subjects.

October 26^th- Kale and Lauren– Archdiocese of Kansas City in Kansas “We have plans to start actively going to Church every week, and grow our family in faith.”

Him: It was interesting, and I felt I learned a lot!

Her: I really enjoyed getting to see the responses from our couple we were working with on our answers and what we believe in! We love the ability to grow and evolve in our faith, and were excited to do as such before our special day.
Both: It helped us to remind each other although we are different people, we have one goal of tackling all that comes at us as a team with our faith in God as the base for that!

October 27^th- Evan and Kendra – Diocese of Toledo OH “I appreciate how sweet the couple was that helped us during this process”

Him: I felt it was a nice way to help me understand the Catholic Faith more. I am not Catholic, and this helped me grasp a better understanding.

Her: I felt this was really nice, and helped us really bond as a whole. This is one of the few things, that we were both very involved with during this wedding process, it was nice to look forward too. Somethings were hard to understand, and having the instructors send their feedback was SO great, it helped us better comprehend something we might have struggled with.
Both: It allowed us to talk about things we had not discussed before and we felt the bonding time during the course was special.

October 28^th- Marcos and Mayra – Diocese of Sacramento CA “An amazing experience that I will never forget.”

Him: I felt this experience exceeded my expectations. I was very unsure of what this course would bring me and how it would benefit our marriage but I was completely blown away. Each chapter had its own unique points and it was a wonderful experience working through each section together.

Her: This course was extremely helpful in allowing my partner and I to explore our religion in a deeper manner than we have together. It defiantly brought us closer together and allowed us to bond over our religion.
Both: We are most appreciative of the very thoughtful and detailed feedback that was given within the answer keys from our instructors. That is what we feel allowed us to benefit the most off of the overall experience.

October 29^th- Adam and Monica  – Archdiocese of Atlanta GA “These classes helped us spend more time together.”
Him: I love how our instructors were so informative and related a lot of the answers to their marriage. Gave us role models to look to during this process. The material we went over was also very good.

Her: I loved how this class helped bring up difficult talks with Adam and helped us clear and talk through things we need for our marriage to work. it helped us having so many good discussions. I do also love the responses we got from our instructors. they helped us see things from a prospective we can relate to.
Both: We had honest, open conversations that helped us clear things we either hadn't talked about like deciding to wait till marriage and NFP.
