About Transformed in Love
Transformed in Love prepares engaged couples, and those seeking a convalidation, to build a solid foundation for their sacred and lifelong union; one built on Jesus Christ.
It was developed by a dedicated team of married couples, theologians, psychologists, canon lawyers, priests, deacons, and more to create a spiritually thoughtful and practical preparation for the sacrament as envisioned by Boston’s Cardinal Seán O’Malley.
Transformed in Love helps couples:
- Understand the nature of marriage and the impact its sacramental character can have on the spouses, family, and society.
- Learn practical skills and tools to assist with healthy communication and managing expectations well.
- Engage in relationship-building exercises to develop a strong connection between spouses.
- Hear firsthand the experiences of married couples.
