Growing Together in Your Marriage

Growing Together in Your Marriage

I (…) take you (…) to be my wife/husband
…I promise to be true to you
in good times and in bad,
in sickness and in health.
I will love you and honor you all the days of my life.

Rite of Marriage

Marriage continues long after the celebration is over. Together, newly married couples embark on a unique lifelong journey of discovery and transformation. Seldom or never does a marriage develop into a deeper, lifelong relationship smoothly and without crises. The exchanged vows …I will love you and honor you all the days of my life... require that couples continually seek ways build their marriage and ‘keep the love alive’. Together couples discover ways to affirm and sustain their awareness of God’s abiding presence in the midst of their everyday lives.

Opportunities are available to support couples in continually discovering the distinct manner in which the presence and action of God are encountered in marriage and family life:
