Why God, Love and Marriage?God made us to love and to be loved. Our culture has forgotten what that looks like, leaving many of our teens to take their best guess at how relationships are supposed to work. The Catholic Church has some ancient wisdom about the purpose of relationships, the moral boundaries, and even about decorum during courtship. Our teens won't hear these things from the world, so it is important that they hear it from the Church.
The Retreat will take place at Holy Martyrs Church in Falmouth on Saturday, January 31 from 9 AM until 3 PM. Teens from other parishes are invited to join. There is a $15 registration fee to cover a light breakfast and lunch. Register by January 26.
Middle School and High School catechists from Parish of the Holy Eucharist will be giving the talks.
