You should have a nice time.

Vinny and I enjoyed pre-cana.

We didn't want it to be a long process so we found one that was a one day only thing-- but when we were there we liked it and had fun (it was with other couples).

Good luck!!

Well, at our Pre-Cana we did not take any tests. We went in, sat with four other couples. Deacon John came in- popped in some cheesy video from the 80's about 'what makes a good marriage' which was hysterical... Then, he talked with his wife about married life which was the cutest part!!! Then, we each went around the room and told the story of how we met. Then, we broke for lunch (he ordered in pizza) I held their pet rabbit who was deaf lol (they have him in a little hutch in the rectory- adorable!!) and then we went back and he blessed the rings, gave us our certificates and took us next door b/c there happened to be a wedding that day that he was doing! So we sat in on the wedding which was pretty and then we left

The FOCCUS is where the 'test taking' comes into play- it's a personality test and they ask you like 'life questions' to see if you guys want the same things like if you want kids or not, if either of you have any problems that you might not know about, etc. It's just to see that you guys are compatible-- if there are any 'irregualarities' then they just sit you down and talk about it.

That was it for us HTH!!!!

Hey Tone! It will be fine. We didn't have to get up in front of everyone or anything like that. No test. Just a booklet that you and Mike will answer questions from and then the two of you only talk them over. So if you thought you knew each other, all these questions might show you that you don't know each other that well. That is what they are trying to do.....make sure you are ready for marriage. Make sure the two of you have thought everything through together. We had a great time and meet other couples that were really nice. I'm sure you will have a good time. It's not that bad. I had been nervous too, but it turned out fine. Have fun!
