The CDEM inventory is being phased out and
replaced with the Prepare-Enrich set of inventories. Bishop Lennon mandated
Prepare-Enrich be utilized for marriage preparation in the Cleveland
Diocese in November 2007. Trainings have been scheduled for priests,
deacons and pastoral ministers involved in marriage preparation.
All who are active should be trained in and utilizing Prepare-Enrich by
the end of 2009. For

What is the cost of
training?
In 2010, training is $100 (a $175 value!) to qualified clergy and
pastoral ministers. Those trained in Version 2000 may attend an
update training for $50.
Who should be trained?
Training is for all clergy and those pastoral ministers already involved or
soon to be involved in marriage ministry. Training is most effective if
the inventories will be used within weeks of the training.
Separate
trainings will also be offered for couple ministers (see below).
Is there a registration
deadline?
We would like an accurate count one week before each training session.
What about
training couple ministers?
We encourage clergy to train couple ministers (healthy married couples) to
assist them in marriage preparation and marriage enrichment
-$50 active couple ministers (for PREPARE/ENRICH only)
-$125 new couple ministers
(Theology of Marriage & Family, NFP, Interfaith Couples, Social Science
Findings, & PREPARE /ENRICH).
