ACCORD - Longford provides courses for couples preparing for marriage as well as supporting, through counselling, couples experiencing difficulties in their marriage. Marriage preparation courses can be booked online at www.accord.ie

ACCORD is an agency of the Catholic Church providing a nationwide service to couples preparing for, or seeking a deeper commitment within, the sacrament of marriage. ACCORD’s mission is to affirm the value of Christian marriage and family in an ever-changing and increasingly pressurised society with challenges of time poverty, economic pressures and lack of extended family support.

Significantly, the greater proportion of ACCORD work continues to be carried out by volunteers. There are counsellors and facilitators from counties Leitrim and Longford and their commitment to supporting Marriage and Family is sincerely acknowledged.
