Families form the fabric of society, however half of all marriages today end in divorce and our communities are suffering as a consequence. The Dating and Marriage Conference endeavors to rekindle a sense of the profound significance and sanctity of marriage, especially among Catholics.
Join us as we bring together leading voices in marriage formation to explore how we can reverse the climbing divorce rates and increase the joy in family life by learning practical ways to put Christ at the center of our relationships, whether we are dating or already married.
Whether you’re single, dating, or curious about what Catholic marriage really means, this conference is a chance to see relationships in a whole new light. Join us and discover a path to love that’s built to last.
