An integral aspect of getting married in the Catholic Church is attending a Marriage Preparation or Pre Cana session. These sessions will help couples learn about the importance of having a Catholic centered marriage, talks on finance, parenting and more!
St. Joseph the Worker Parish is blessed to run our own Pre Cana Marriage Preparation Session for those getting married (or having marriages validated) in our Parish and the Parishes around us. This year's Pre Cana Marriage Prep session is scheduled for Saturday, February 21, 2026 at the Parish Center on the St. Maurice Campus from 9:00 AM - 4:45 PM.
Our session fulfills the Diocese of Pittsburgh's requirements for being married in a Catholic Church. The cost for the session is $75. Please contact Cheryl Kirkland at 412-351-6710 to register.
