Strengthen Your Marriage

The Stations of the Cross for Couples
Friday, March 26
7 PM
Registration Required

Sign-Up Today

The Catholic Family Services Office and Worldwide Marriage Encounter are sponsoring a virtual Stations of the Cross for Couples on Friday, March 26 at 7 P.M. Join us as we accompany Jesus on His way to Calvary in praying the stations together. The everyday struggles couples face in their relationships can, at times, be a heavy cross to carry, but when we journey with Jesus to Calvary as a couple, we find hope and strength to enrich our relationships. We all need images of hope in living out our vocation to married life, and Jesus offers us those images in His passion. The stations will be led by two married couples. Each will offer a brief reflection and insight on how we can see our relationship with our spouse mirrored in Jesus. Registration is required. Call Mary-Jo McLaughlin, at 860-848-2237, Ext 312 or email mmclaughlin@norwichdiocese.net

A link will be sent to you prior to the event.

Prayer for Students Returning to School

Posted on August 25, 2025 in: News

881

As another school year begins, we are reminded that learning is more than the pursuit of knowledge — it is a journey toward wisdom, wonder, and deeper trust in God. Each classroom becomes a place where gifts are discovered, friendships are formed, and faith is lived out in daily moments. We entrust our students to the Lord, asking Him to guide their minds, protect their hearts, and fill their days with curiosity, joy, and perseverance. May this year not only shape their studies but also help them grow closer to Christ, who is the source of all truth and knowledge. ...
