Register by Feb. 1: Marriage Enrichment Celebrates the Joy of Love

For Valentine’s Day this year, give your spouse the gift of your time and re-energize your marriage by attending a virtual marriage enrichment entitled The Joy of Love  from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, Feb. 12.

This enrichment will coincide with National Marriage Week, celebrated Feb. 7-14, and its theme “Marriage: Called to the Joy of Love.” Celebrate the joy of your love by focusing on the most important person in your life – your spouse.

The enrichment is based on Chapter 4 of Pope Francis’ Amoris Laetitia: The Joy of Love and will feature four talks by four couples about Daily Love, Conjugal Love, Passionate Love and Transformation of Love. It will deepen your faith with practical insights from Pope Francis’ wisdom on marriage and family life. 

This enrichment is for married couples of all ages and years married. It takes place online and requires participants to have an internet connection. There is a $15 fee that covers workbooks for each couple. Registration and payment are due by Feb. 1. 

To register, send your names, address, telephone number, e-mail address and check made payable to Annual Catholic Appeal to Mary-Jo McLaughlin, Catholic Family Services, 199 Broadway, Norwich, CT 06360, or call her at 860-848-2237, Ext. 312 or email her at mmclaughlin@norwichdiocese.net.
