Marriage Enrichment

The Catholic Church cares about marriage. The Second Vatican Council said, “The well-being of the individual person and of human and Christian society is intimately linked with the healthy condition of that community produced by marriage and family” (Gaudium et Spes, no. 48). Marriage is a gift to society. Every marriage witnesses to God’s faithful, fruitful, and lasting love for His people. Marriage confers a myriad of benefits on a husband and wife, and on any children that they are blessed with. The Church provides many on-the-ground helps for couples to keep their marriages strong, happy, and holy.  

Divine Mercy Parish believes in affirming the sacredness of marriage with our faith community.  We also recognize the stress daily life places on this bond.  Through the year, the Marriage Enrichment Ministry offers opportunities for all engaged and married couples to enrich their relationship.  A variety of programs provide the setting for couples to spend time together learning, communicating, and socializing.
