Yep.  For all the flak that the Catholic Church takes on marriage and
divorce they are making a real and useful effort on this.  If you want to
marry within the church you have to

	1)	register from six to twelve months in advance (depends on
		where you live)

	2)	participate in a ``pre-cana'' program to check that you
		really know what you are getting into.  Most people don't

It's no gaurantee, but it helps.
