What we do

Help couples and individuals understand God’s Plan for Marriage and Family Life by:

  • Providing the support and skills needed to help them live out this plan in their daily lives.

  • Affirming the sacredness of life, the sanctity of marriage, the sacramentality of the family and a Christian lifestyle.

  • Promoting the Catholic vision of the family as “the Domestic Church” and a “school of holiness.”

  • Providing formation and continuing support in the areas of Marriage Preparation, Marriage Enrichment and Natural Family Planning.

  • Empowering families to share their faith in the home, parish, workplace and in the community.

AI for Life: How to Use AI to Speak Up for the Vulnerable

November 17 @ 7:45 pm  8:45 pm

FREE

MPs and MSPs are inundated with identical campaign emails.

While these help, personal letters still make the biggest impact—but writing them takes time.

That’s where AI can help. This Beginner level Webinar will show you how to use AI tools to write clear and personalised letters quickly.

You’ll see how AI can find key pro-life points and express them naturally in your own tone of voice — helping you write with clarity and confidence.  No experience necessary!

World Meeting of Families

The 10th World Meeting of Families, as announced in a video message by Pope Francis, will be held in a “polycentric and widespread” format and will have different features than meetings in previous years. However, the event, already postponed one year due to the Covid-19 pandemic, cannot ignore the different global situation caused by this healthcare emergency.
