Beyond Prep: More ways to assist engaged & married couples Hospitality at registration Engagement rituals Mentor couples Provide new couples with resources and personal assistance as they develop a pattern of prayer Prayer cards for wedding day

If you were a newly married couple in your parish, would there be opportunities: to connect with other young couples? to be mentored by an older couple in a strong marriage? to serve together in a parish liturgical, catechetical or social ministry?

The wedding was great! Invite me to the marriage. -God
