Oasi Cana is a Christian-inspired organisation that for over forty years has accompanied the couples and families of Sicily in every season of their life: from engagement to marriage, from the birth of children to the difficulties every relationship can go through.
Born around the image of the wedding at Cana — where water becomes wine and a celebration about to fade finds its joy again — our work puts at its centre the relationship: that between spouses, that between parents and children, that between the family and the community around it.
What we do
We offer formation, a listening ear and accompaniment with competence, confidentiality and free of charge. Priests, professionals, staff and many volunteers work together on this.
- Programmes for engaged couples in preparation for the sacrament of marriage
- Accompanying young couples in the first years of life together
- Formation for families and parents on affection, education and life as a couple
- Counselling and psychotherapy for the person, the couple and the family
- Rehabilitation and inclusion of people with disabilities and their families
