"James and Maureen Otremba are a dynamic couple with over twenty-five years of experience preparing and teaching couples. As Catholics, the Eucharist is the source and summit of our faith. By recognizing the connections between your sacrament of marriage and the Most Holy Eucharist, your relationship will be transformed and your eyes opened to see the Holy Mass and your marriage in a whole new light!"
Jim and Joy Pinto
Co-Hosts of EWTN’s at Home with Jim and Joy
“What the Otrembas offer in this incredible work is nothing less than a monumental paradigm shift for marriage enrichment experienced through the Divine Liturgy, every aspect of the Liturgy, and Jesus embraced in the Most Holy Eucharist. To accept their offer is to have one’s spiritual eyes open at every Mass, every marital encounter, and to be transformed into His beloved likeness.”
Deacon Tom Lang
Director, Office of the Permanent Diaconate Archdiocese of
Dubuque, IA
“Using their gifts and personal journey, the Otrembas skillfully and prayerfully tied the sacramentality of marriage to the Eucharist. Every married couple could benefit from this practical, skills-based material; no matter if you are newlyweds or married 45 plus years.”
“In only 7 hours, you have helped us a thousand times more than in four marriage counseling meetings we went to! I deeply thank you for giving us tools to strengthen and improve our marriage. I have prayed for help and I know that you are part of His answer.”
