A marriage preparation course for couples preparing for the Sacrament of Marriage was successfully conducted at Puneeth Sadan, Shirwad, from 13th to 15th March 2026. A total of 46 participants attended the three-day program, which aimed to help couples understand the meaning, responsibilities, and spiritual dimension of Christian marriage.

The course included several informative and interactive sessions led by experienced resource persons. The topics covered included the Sacrament of Marriage, the complementarity of man and woman in marriage, communication in married life, human anatomy, relationships with parents and in-laws, conflicts and reconciliation in marriage, family responsibilities, parenting, and financial management in family life. Through these sessions, discussions, and group activities, the participants were encouraged to reflect deeply on their future married life and responsibilities as Christian couples.
