The observances of National Marriage Week (Feb. 7-14) and World Marriage Day (Sunday, Feb. 9) are an opportunity to focus on building a culture of life and love that begins with supporting and promoting marriage and the family. This year’s theme is “Marriage: Source of Hope, Spring of Renewal. Pursue a Lasting Love!” Visit foryourmarriage.org to find resources to build up your marriage for this week and all year long.
Prayer for a Married Couple
O God, who in creating the human race
willed that man and wife should be one,
keep, we pray, in a bond of inseparable love those who are united in the covenant of Marriage,
so that, as you make their love fruitful,
they may become, by your grace, witnesses to charity itself.
Through Christ our Lord
Amen.
