Marriage Ministry

"It must be emphasized once more that the pastoral intervention of the church in support of the family is a matter of urgency. Every effort should be made to strengthen and develop pastoral care for the family, which should be treated as a real matter of priority, in the certainty that future evangelization depends largely on the domestic church." -Pope John Paul II in "On the Family," 1981

In response to the Church's teaching, and with the guidance of the US Conference of Catholic Bishops and the support of our Archbishop, the Family Life Office offers families a variety of helpful resources and programs by providing parishes with training and resources for service to families across the life cycle.
