Typically our program is offered twice a year, in the spring and fall. The program consists of both a Saturday and Sunday session. Our scheduled sessions run from Saturday, 5:30pm - 10:00pm; and Sunday: 1:00pm - 5:30pm. If these session times don't work for you, there are other parishes within the Diocese of Rochester that offer excellent classes as well. See link here.
During the weekend we have found that the more you and your fiance are active participants the more enriching the experience you will receive. Topics which will be discussed include: Communication; Family of Origin and Children; Friends and Leisure; Finances; Sexuality and Spirituality. We will also have both large and small breakout sessions where you and your fiance will have time to build your relationship and faith.
We believe it is in your best interest to schedule your weekend as soon as possible. The benefits of this special weekend can be lost if it is squeezed into the schedule too close to your wedding. Our classes do fill up and our space is limited so please call, fill out the form below and submit it to us on-line, or print out the form and mail it to us as soon as possible to reserve a space. We will e-mail you to verify that we received your application. If you have not heard from us within a week please call immediately.
There is a $65.00 fee for the weekend. To secure your spot please send your check to: Church of the Assumption, 20 East Avenue, Fairport NY 14450. Please make sure you clearly mark on the memo "Pre Cana" and the class month/year you are registering for.
Checks can be made out to Church of the Assumption
Please note: It is a requirement that you and your fiance complete FULLY ENGAGED before you get married. If you have any questions about FULLY ENGAGED, please contact your rectory and pastor as they will have details about this process. It is NOT a requirement that you complete FULLY ENGAGED prior to the PreCana Classes.
Please note - If you still see the dates below, then the class is not full. We will remove the dates once our class is at capacity.
Thank you,
Church of the Assumption
