Understanding the true meaning of marriage is one thing, living it out is another. “Beloved: Living Marriage” is a new series which examines the day-to-day challenges of being united as husband and wife, while maintaining individuality. This series shows how to put faith at the center of your marriage. Learning to effectively communicate, turning conflict into understanding, and avoiding the pitfalls that wreck relationships are among the topics presented for helping relationships to thrive. All adults are welcome to attend these sessions on the first Sunday of each month in October through March. The group meets at 9:00 AM in the Parish Office.
