We are right at the start of National Marriage Week (February 7-14) and today we are celebrating World Marriage Day!
Bishop Richard J. Malone chairman of the Committee on Laity, Marriage, Family Life and Youth of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) said this week is an opportunity “to celebrate the gift and blessing of marriage and to affirm and support engaged and married couples.”
USCCB is promoting, strengthening and defending the gift of marriage. They are providing a daily virtual marriage retreat for National Marriage Week, available through Facebook. The theme of this year’s retreat is Pope Francis’ words of wisdom to married couples.
The CatholicMatch Institute is working in conjunction with National Marriage Week to bring to you Catholic Marriage Week.
During Catholic Marriage Week, the CatholicMatch Institute is focused on promoting the benefits of marriage and strengthening existing marriages. By helping to build a culture of marriage, we can also help more single Catholics better understand and prepare for marriage.
We are offering FREE content that not only encourages marriage enrichment for existing couples, but also promotes purposeful dating for single Catholics who want to get married.
Come on over to CatholicMarriageWeek.com and celebrate with us!
