Sharing: Training on Marriage Preparation Program (updated on Jun 17, 2021)

          I shared the 22 talks of Fr. He about Sacrament of Matrimony in Canon Law to many group chatting and several people said it’s very good. Then, seminarian Lin asked me about the content for Marriage Preparation Program so I asked Ms. Sherman of The Hong Kong Catholic Marriage Advisory Council the booklet of Marriage Preparation Program.  I met her during the workshop at Maryknoll Stanley House several years ago.  She sent the e-booklet and offered a training for seminarians so I asked her to organize an online Putonghua training on Marriage Preparation Program for priests, sisters and seminarians.      

Mr. Cai helped me to make the poster with the QR code of registration form as per attached picture.  The training is organized on May 20, 27 and Jun 3 for total 12 hours.  There are 16 sisters and 9 priests, from 11 dioceses, registered for the training.  As Ms. Sherman said the maximum participant is 20 persons, I put 2 sisters on the list for the next training.  More than half are referral from the priests and sisters who are in my group chatting.

There are 22 people attended the session on May 20.  One sister can’t attend it due to internet problem, another sister attended it even though she didn’t register as she got the link of the 腾讯会议 from one of the priests.  Ms. Sherman and Mr. Freeman led the training.  By the end of the morning session, they are expressing their gratitude for the training as it's very helpful for their ministry.

There are 11-13 people attended the session on Jun 3. Ms, Anna led the training.

As there is a request to give more sessions, I invited Ms. Vanessa of Caritas Family Service to give talk on Billings Ovulation Method followed by watching the DVD "I do: Keys to Happy Marriage" and sharing my Marriage Preparation Program.  There are 13-16 people attended the morning and afternoon session of Jun 8 and 7-8 people attended the morning season of Jun 17.
