INCLUDES
This includes STEP by STEP Booklet
PATHWAYS™ STEP By STEP BOOKLET
As part of PATHWAYS™, we have created a booklet called STEP BY STEP given to each participant attending PATHWAYS™.
The Booklet addresses many of the questions a couple may have. It becomes a reference point for what a couple needs to do. And it holds insights that a couple can ponder as they follow this pathway.
The first half of the booklet helps couples consider why Sacramental Marriage. “PATHWAYS™ to the Sacraments is a time of conversion, a time to better understand the Sacrament of Matrimony as a bond between the two spouses created by God Himself, so strong that only death can dissolve it.
This gives new meaning to our lives by embracing the vocation of marriage and dedicating our home as a place for meeting God. The second half of the booklet focuses on each of the STEPS to Living a Sacramental Marriage. Each of the spouses becomes the PATHWAY to holiness and heaven for each other through God’s grace.
This includes couple PRAYER SLIPS packet
Couple PRAYER SLIPS Packet
MarriageBuilding-ConstruyendoMatrimonios USA has created a set of Prayer Slips for participating couples to use in the days following PATHWAYS™.
Each Prayer Slip contains something relevant to the PATHWAYS™ experience and preparing for Sacramental Marriage in the Church and then gives a Prayer for the Couple to say together. In later Prayer Slips, there are ways the couple can add their own words to the prayer experience.
Prayer Slip for Day 11 is only to be included for those couples going through the Declaration of Nullity process.
In the STEP by STEP Booklets, STEP #1 is Prayer and Discernment. These Prayer Slips are to help couples discern and pray together in the days ahead. Each day leads the couple through a time of:

Holy Heart! Holy Home! STICKER for PRAYER CANDLE
(Candle not included).
Candles reflect the light of Christ. We want to provide a Candle to light their way. When invited to pray at the beginning, couples will be asked to light their candle which will stay lit during the entire gathering.
During the final Shared Prayer Experience with a member of the Team, the couple should be invited to take the candle with them to the chapel. At the end of the evening, couples will be reminded the candle is theirs for use with their Prayer Slips in the days ahead.
This includes PALM CROSS & PRAYER CARD
PALM CROSS & COUPLE PRAYER Card
(Image on Palm Cross may vary from what is pictured).
As part of the Opening Prayer, couples will find a Palm Cross and an explanation of how to use a Palm Cross in Couple Prayer. Tonight, ask them to hold the cross together. When the Prayer Slips are explained and handed out as part of STEP One, remind them to use the Palm Cross in their Couple Prayer at home. At the conclusion of the formal Presentation, there is a third time the Prayer Cross will be used during PATHWAYS™ and that is in the shared prayer experience.
