Hi Joyce,
ReplyDeleteJust wondering what do they ask in the prenuptial inquiry?
Hi, do you mean the inquiry conducted by the priest after finishing the marriage preparation course?
DeleteIf yes, the priest will be "interviewing" the soon-to-be-husband-and-wife separately (one after the other).
If I remember correctly, the priest will ask mainly about what did you learn from the preparation course and expectations about marriage life. His main responsibility is to "feel" the connection and chemistry between the man and the woman. If there's something not quite there yet, he will advise accordingly.
