Fully Engaged is a marriage preparation tool created especially for Catholics. Replacing FOCCUS, Fully Engaged assists couples in looking at their strengths and weaknesses, and creates excellent conversation. Our mentor couples, led by Mike & Patty Schneider, work with engaged couples and address topics of specific interest to Catholics such as marriage as a Sacrament, the sacred centrality of family life and children, and active membership in our parish are just a few of the topics. We are very fortunate and thankful to have 4 trained St. Rita mentor couples to work with our couples at our parish. If you have any interest in joining our efforts and working with our engaged couples, please contact Mike or Patty at (815) 874-5223 for further information.
