PRE-CANA PROGRAM

The responsibility for marriage preparation takes place at the parish level. Pastors take this responsibility seriously and the Office of Religious Education (ORE) for the Byzantine Catholic Archeparchy of Pittsburgh has been privileged to contribute to that preparation.

For the past eight years, the ORE has helped hundreds of couples prepare for the Mystery of Marriage by sponsoring a weekend that addresses topics pertinent to their future lifestyle - including faith, finances and communications.

The weekends begin at 8:00 p.m. on Friday evening and end on Sunday. The location for the Pre-Cana Weekends is the Antiochian Village in Ligonier, Pa. Acceptance is on a first-come-first-served basis and limited to 20 couples per weekend. Registration is required and must be submitted at least one month prior to scheduled weekend.
