Il-Kors ta’ Kana

Couples in Malta who wish to marry under Roman Catholic faith are required to attend a marriage preparation course. The course is obligatory, and it is suggested that couples attend the course as early as two year before the wedding.

Let’s Break It Down…

The courses consist of 10 weekly meetings held during three months of the year: January, April and October. The course is delivered in Maltese only during January, but is offered in English during the later months.

Bookings are to be made directly through the couple’s chosen parish, under the jurisdiction of the Cana Movement. There is a one-time payment fee of €35 per couple and will award them with a certificate to be submitted to the registry when applying for the Publication of Marriage Banns, along with a second certificate given to the couple at the end of a second set of meetings held closer to the date of the wedding – the Immediate Preparation of Marriage.

A brief overview of the course covers many aspects that married couples could face, like debt and financial control, as well approaching subjects apt for a life together; like the curation of family livelihood and effective communication methods between spouses.

Other subjects touched upon include the sanctity of marriage, and the importance of sacrament – being that you choose to allow God to take witness and guide you into the new life you are about to begin.

Couples who are not marrying under Roman Catholic faith are able to attend the courses as well, as the seemingly serve as a pre-nuptial counselling and preparation service allowing any couple ready to take the leap of faith to soar with confidence.
