This
is an initiative by the Bishops' Committee for Marriage and Family Life
of England and Wales to clarify who is preparing couples for
marriage, how they prepare couples and what
couples think about the marriage preparation they've received. We
want to hear from everyone involved in preparing couples for marriage in
the Catholic Church in England and Wales whether
priests,
deacons or lay providers as
well as from the couples themselves. There are three parts to this survey. Survey
of Marriage Preparation Providers
Are
you involved in preparing couples for marriage? Please, tell us more
about yourself. How did you come to be involved in marriage preparation?
What kind of preparation do you offer? If you offer a course what topics
do you cover? In which months are you generally busiest? Supply
monthly statistics
For
each month that you prepare couples or run a course, please would you
tell us: How many couples completed your course this month? NB Only one
of those involved in each course need complete this survey. (This
survey has two tracks: one for priests and deacons and one for other
providers. That’s to help us analyse the results more easily as we
assume that all priests and deacons witnessing a couples' marriage are
involved in preparing them for the sacrament.) Survey
of Couples: Did
you experience a marriage preparation course in 2010?
Thank you for helping us learn more about how we prepare couples for marriage. |
