Traditionally, pre-Cana might look like a handful of couples meeting for a daylong retreat in the formation rooms of the local parish. While they’re there — many never having met before — couples might be expected to talk about anything from sex to finances to expectations in marriage; all things couples have a hard enough time talking to each other about, let alone strangers.
“It’s a model, and it’s the model the Church has been using for years,” said Jessie Wiegand, director of marketing and communications for The Marriage Group, a Port Huron-based company that provides couples in every U.S. diocese with online marriage-strengthening resources.
The Marriage Group offers more than just pre-Cana for marriage preparation. The community-based platform is all done online and is based on the formation of marriage every day. It’s also done online in the privacy of one’s own home, so couples can be free to talk through the intimate details of their futures together.
