One of the most pleasant moments in pastoral ministry is having a couple come to you and request that their civil marriage be blessed in the church. Frequently, we are so excited that the couple wants their marriage convalidated that we forget that this is a special time when they are open to instruction on the meaning of the sacrament that they are about to receive.

The Engaged Encounter and other preparation programs are not appropriate for individuals who have been married for several years. A different approach is needed. The Covenant Experience method has been modified to meet this need.

Entitled “The Covenant Experience for Convalidations,” it has been adapted from the highly successful Covenant Experience Weekend, and tested within the Archdiocese of Miami.

This is a “sleep-at-home” event, beginning on Friday evening from 7:00PM to 10:00PM and resuming on Saturday from 8:30AM until 5:00PM
