Pre-marital Counseling

Couples desiring to be married by a Providence pastor are required to go through a program of marriage preparation. Providence offers two options for meeting this requirement:

1) A pre-marriage LIFE Bible study

2) Individual marriage preparation counseling with a pastor

The LIFE Bible study class, which meets for 12 weeks on Sundays at 9:30 a.m. in the fall and winter quarters, is for both couples considering engagement and engaged couples. For information or to register for the class, contact
Nancy Corson (919-326-3000, ext. 232).

For individual pastoral premarital counseling, if you are getting married by a Providence pastor, check with the pastor who will be performing your ceremony (see the Providence Wedding Policies on the Getting Married At Providence page) to determine his preferences for pre-marital counseling. If you desire premarital counseling but are not getting married by a Providence pastor, contact Becky Estes (919-326-3000, ext. 237).
