The Sacrament of Marriage is celebrated during the year after a formation program involving meetings with the presider of the Marriage and the completion of the Engaged Encounter or a Pre-Cana program. Resurrection usually has its Pre-Cana program in the late winter on a Sunday from 10:30 to 8:00 PM.
Part of the preparation is the use of the FOCCUS instrument usually taken at the first meeting with the presider of the sacrament. Ideally a year should be set apart for preparation for the Sacrament of Marriage.
