February 7–14: Strengthening Marriages in Faith and Love
National Marriage Week is a special time to reflect on and celebrate the sacred bond of marriage. From February 7–14, we invite couples in our parish and beyond to engage in this meaningful observance through prayer, reflection, and enriching resources that strengthen the marital vocation.
Resources for Couples
The Diocese of Baker offers several valuable resources to help couples grow in faith and deepen their relationship, including:
- At-Home Couples’ Retreat – Available in English and Spanish, this retreat provides guided reflections and activities to nurture your marriage from the comfort of your home.
- Reflections for Meditation – Thought-provoking meditations on marriage, also available in English and Spanish, to encourage couples to pray together and strengthen their commitment.
Visit DioceseOfBaker.org to access these resources.
