Interfaith Pre-Cana Help?

Can anyone suggest a good local (NY) Interfaith Pre-Cana?

My fiancee is Jewish and I am Catholic. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Interfaith Pre-Cana Help?

Since my parish was in Queens and they helped us with our dispensation requirements, we registered through the Brooklyn diocese (vs RVC) and did a Saturday Interfaith Pre-Cana in Brooklyn.

We truly got a lot out of it. Your priest should be able to tell you what`s available for you. It was $100 and all of 6 1/2 hours. Pretty painless!
Good luck!

Here's where we went...

I don't remember the exact name of the church we went to for the Interfaith Pre-Cana, but the diocese (spelling?) was in Rockville Centre, and the pre-cana was run by Monsignor Lisante. I'm the Jewish one of the couple, and I loved it. It was really eye-opening, and instead of telling you what you CAN'T do as an interfaith couple (as no doubt, everyone in your life is telling you already), this pre-cana tells you what you CAN do. It was pretty great. We walked out of there even more sure of how strong we were as a couple, and how right we were for each other. You'll enjoy it. Good luck.
