We are so happy your love has brought you to this beautiful time in your life. To help you enter into marriage, as a vocation, it is a requirement of the Archdiocese of Toronto that couples complete an approved marriage preparation program called Joy Filled Marriage. This course covers not only the sacramentality and theology of marriage but also the practical life skills necessary to live out the rich Catholic vision of marriage. Below is a course preview. At the end of the course, couples will need to submit a certificate of completion.
There are several courses of instruction conducted each year in the Archdiocese of Toronto. You will be responsible for making your own arrangements with one of the following:
