The Marriage Preparation Course Conductors of  the Prince of Peace Church have finalized their plans and 2016 schedule of their upcoming classes that will start next month. This course is conducted to guide the couples who will get married this year in the Prince of  Peace Church.

This Marriage Preparation Course is led by Deacon Eustace  and Gloria Beausoleil. This group started in the Prince of Peace Parish 18 years ago. The couples to be married have to attend the six weekend Marriage Preparation Course, which include presentations, lectures and group discussions on:  Readiness and Maturity,
Communication, Natural Family Planning, Parenting, Sexuality, Stewardship and Spirituality; to prepare the couples to be married for their coming wedding and  married life.

Rommel and Cynthia Acayan were in the initial group. The other four couples have been conducting these  courses for the Prince of Peace Parish for over 16 years. (It is worth noting that the five Course Conductors  couples have a combined happy married life of  220 years together.)
