We are happy to provide you with some of the marriage and family life support resources we are familiar with.
There are a lot of good resources today counseling, online programs, in person programs, retreats, books, etc.
We encourage those who are looking for resources to be discerning as to what may be helpful and to keep looking for support until the concerns are resolved. If one resource is not helpful, there are many others.
Please know that the links provided below should not be interpreted as an official endorsement of the organizations, programs, and websites listed. As often happens, organizations, non-profits, and individuals can and do change their mission, services, resources, and websites.
Each parish, pastor, and person utilizing any resource is encouraged to make his/her own investigation prior to utilizing any service, program, or resource.
Marriage is not easy, but with God all things are possible.
May the Holy Spirit guide you to the resources you need for yourself or for those you know, love, and seek to serve and help.
