A New Session of Divorce Ministry Begins in February
There's no such thing as "Catholic divorce" but the bad news is Catholics do civilly divorce. We're
here to help, and to encourage healing through the Sacraments where you'll personally encounter
Christ—with all His love and tender mercies. And that's the REALLY good news.
St. Lucie Catholic Church in Port St. Lucie will be hosting a new session of the Divorce Survival Guide
Ministry starting in February. Our program features the powerful and inspiring real-life stories of civilly
divorced Catholic men and women who found help in the Church. This DVD-based program with leader
support offers the truth about love, marriage, divorce, & recovery from a faithfully Catholic perspective.
For more information and to register, call Loretta Barnes at 772-878-1215.
Celebrate World Marriage Day in February
World Marriage Day is celebrated annually on the second Sunday of February to honor husbands and
wives as the foundation of the family, the basic unit of society. It salutes the beauty of their faithfulness,
sacrifice and joy in daily married life. This year World Marriage Day is February 14. The diocese invites
married couples to celebrate the gift of each other in these following simple ways: Learn more at
wmd.wwme.org
Attend Mass together.
Sit together and look at your courtship and
wedding pictures.
