[E] Diocese of Kilmore ~ Marriage Preparation Courses: It is Diocesan policy that each couple attends an ACCORD Pre-Marriage Course. Facilitators giving these courses undergo continued in-service training and supervision. And the sacramental aspect of marriage receives appropriate attention. It is a wise practice to do a course up to a year before the date of your marriage ~ a course only weeks before your wedding has not the same value. All couples are asked to note this request and make suitable & timely arrangements. [F] Would you like to climb Croagh Patrick on Reek Sunday ~ the last Sunday of July?
