The Esker Pre Marriage Course is probably in the premiership of marriage preparation. This is a residential weekend beginning on the Friday evening at 8pm, and ending at lunchtime on Sunday.It is conducted by married couples, and gives the couple an opportunity to examine all aspects of their relationship in a caring and understanding environment. At a time when it is probably more difficult than in the past to sustain a life-giving relationship, this weekend is strongly recommended for those who wish to make a success of their marriage.
(Note to Priests: The Esker Marriage Preparation Course is an approved course for couples: it has been approved by the Bishop of Clonfert, in 2014. It is the policy of the Irish Episcopal Conference that particular marriage preparation courses receive Catholic Church approval from the Ordinary in whose diocese they occur.
Why this Course? This residential course provides couples with the tools for a successful marriage on a weekend away from the hustle and bustle of wedding preparations and other distractions. It focuses on the couple relationship and provides a framework for healthy communication and growth to build a strong marriage.
‘I freely recommend this programme and I pray for the couples and priests who present it. May the Lord continue to bless your work in Esker. Criost linn, John Kirby, Bishop of Clonfert – on behalf of the Irish Bishops.
