Re: PRECANA!!!!!
Call the Diocese of Rockville Ctr. They will mail you a list of the churches and schedules for precana. You can also call St Catherine's of Sienna in Franklin Square. That's where we are getting married and I know that they take couples outside of the church for precana.

Re: PRECANA!!!!!
You can basically go to any Catholic Church. I'm getting married in Melville but now live out east and I went to a church closer to my house. You just have to give a copy of your completion form to the church your getting married in. The pre-cana was a lot shorter where I went, so we lucked out. So keep that in mind when looking for a church, make sure that it fits your schedule. My church even gave us a list of churchs to go too. So you should also ask your parish.Hope I helped and good luck!

Just so you know the churches in Nassau are a little crazy. As much as this is true and you should be able to go to any catholic church, they may not let you. I was supposed to get married at another church but it was cancelled b/c of precana. The church only does precana for their members and will not let you go outside of the parrish for it. They only had precana available in Oct and I am travelling for work. Needless to say I had to find another church b/c they would not marry us if we attended precana anywhere else. The Diocese in Rockville Ctr really helped us out.

Re: PRECANA!!!!!
Strange because the list that my church gave us was for both Nassau and Suffolk. And we ended up picking a church that was not on the list. I guess it depends on the Pastor at the church. They make all the rules for that parish, I guess.
