Where Spouses Discover God’s Plan for Their Family

  • "This conference provides an opportunity for married couples to grow in the awareness of how the strengthening and living out of our Catholic Faith, even in the messiness of our daily lives as families, is the true Anchor that will keep us firm in the place of Encounter with God's Love and Mercy despite the storms that challenge us all."
