Experiencing Pre-Cana Seminar at EDSA Shrine

So Hubby (Ex BF) and I had our Pre-Cana Seminar in EDSA Shrine which is required as per Villa San Miguel, our Wedding Chapel. They require couples to attend two seminars – Christian Doctrine which is scheduled every Saturday from 8am-12pm and the Pre-Cana Seminar every last Saturday of the month. Note that you cannot take the Pre-Cana Seminar if you haven’t attended the Christian Doctrine Seminar.

The Christian Doctrine Seminar has 3 speakers that talk about the Apostle’s Creed, the sacraments and how you live as a Christian.

The Pre-Cana Seminar starts at 9am at the “Free Clinic” room, ground floor along EDSA side (near the ladies’ washroom). You need to bring the brown paper issued to you after taking the first required seminar.

When we attended this last Sept. 13, 2014, we were the only couple registered as soon-to-wed. The speakers teased us as “Dong-Yanne” (not in looks and figures. haha). Not sure if it’s just me but I never felt sleepy during the entire seminar. 

Tita Minnie (one of the speakers) told us that they accommodate anyone before with which she dropped names of popular personalities in showbusiness (with side stories. hehe). But due to large volume of interested parties, they now allow only those registered from either EDSA Shrine or Villa San Miguel. Attendees are combination of couples who are getting married and/or  having their child baptized, so most of the talk (3rd speaker) are about baptism requirements. You can contact them through (02) 633 4359.

How to commute going to EDSA Shrine aside from the Bus B (or routing to Ortigas Ilalim), you can ride G-liner bound to Taytay Rizal from San Juan or near SM Centerpoint.
