Witness to Love

A Marriage Catechumenate

Witness to Love has been serving the Church as a Marriage Catechumenate since 2012

Recently the Vatican officially released a “marriage catechumenate itinerary”. This approach to forming and walking with couples before the wedding day and long after has been Witness to Love’s passion for the past decade. We are so excited that the marriage catechumenate is now officially recommended for all couples entering into the Sacrament of Marriage! Watch this video we recorded in 2017 on the topic:

~Co-authored by Ryan and Mary Rose Verret and edited by Peter Jesserer Smith

The Road to Family Missionary Discipleship: Forming Marriages and Families to Share the Joy of the Gospel – Following the Synod on the Family and Pope Francis’s apostolic exhortation Amoris Laetitia, Catholics have looked to put in action the Church’s beautiful vision for marriage and family evangelization. Combining Church teaching, personal testimonies, and the Witness to Love marriage ministry experience and insight, The Road to Family Missionary Discipleship gives churches, ministries, and disciples of Jesus Christ a practical guide to form holy marriages, and accompany families for their mission to share the “joy of the Gospel.”
