SmartLoving BreakThrough Companion Training
SmartLoving BreakThrough is an online course for individual spouses in troubled marriages. Although the BreakThrough experience can be completed by an individual (in a self-directed format) we know the power of accompaniment. We recognise there is a great pastoral and spiritual benefit when an individual can be accompanied by a faith-filled person through a tried and tested program like BreakThrough.
With the knowledge that a significant amount of married couples are struggling in their vocation and with feedback that they are reaching out to clergy, parish leaders, family and friends, (who often do not have the resources to assist them). In 2024 our mission is to build up a cohort of BreakThrough Companions.
What is a BreakThrough Companion?
A BreakThrough Companion accompanies the individual in the troubled marriage who is enrolled in BreakThrough course, providing them with accountability, motivation and spiritual support as they progress through the content. A Companion would meet with the individual after they complete each lesson of the BreakThrough course using the instructions and discussion questions provided in the BreakThrough Companion guide. A Companion could be a priest, deacon, parish employee, friend, neighbour, family member or counsellor.
In 2024 we will be offering training webinars to become a Companion. This training consists of working through the BreakThrough course as a Participant (done online, self-directed) followed by attendance at 3 webinars (1.5 hours each). Participants will complete each section ahead of each training webinar where we will unpack the content and do Companion specific training.
Trainee Companions will need to purchase the BreakThrough Companion & Leader pack and print the Companion guide. Training is included.
