    • Our Lady Undoer of Knots Novena for National Marriage Week


      From February 7-14, through the USCCB’s National Marriage Week, the Church is invited to focus especially on the Sacrament of Marriage and the irreplaceable role marriage has in shaping families and society.

      In honor and care for each marriage in our Diocese, we are highlighting this novena to Our Lady Undoer of Knots, a devotion which started from the earnest prayers of a spouse on the verge of divorce.

      Whether you’re single or married, we invite you to join us in prayer for your spouse, your future spouse, or the renewal and healing of marriages in the Church and throughout the world.

      You can learn more about this devotion as well as find a short or long form version of the novena in the links below.
      Our Lady, Undoer of Knots, pray for us!

      Our Mission

      To joyfully share the Catholic vision for marriage and family life, so that those called to this vocation will know the love of Jesus Christ and thrive with the help of his grace.
       

      What We Do

      We focus on strengthening the family—the Domestic Church—which is the building block of society and the Catholic Church established by Jesus Christ. To that end, we:
      • Offer marriage preparation weekend retreats to engaged couples.
      • Teach about the Sacrament of Marriage and the importance of being "on mission" as a family.
      • Empower couples—especially women—to understand their fertility and how to plan their family in a way that corresponds to their wedding vows.
      • Share concrete skills for couples to grow in prayer, dialogue, and a willingness to embrace challenge as an opportunity for growth.
      • Celebrate anniversary milestones for married couples in the Diocese.
      • Help to build up local parish communities by fostering a culture of hospitality and faith.
  • Meet the Marriage & Family Team
