| Fr. Fulgence’s writing encourages you to open up your marriage to the third and most important Person: Jesus, who is the foundation and center of every Christian marriage. |
|
| Fr. Fulgence will remind you that when the wine from your wedding feast runs out, Jesus will replenish your love to be far greater and sweeter than it was before. |
|
| “Thereby our Savior indicated that He desired to be invited to every wedding of His followers; in other words, He wanted them to be married according to the laws of His Church, and in the state of sanctifying grace; and that upon their invitation He would be present not as an idle or uninterested spectator, but as the sponsor and guarantor of their marital happiness; so that in case the wine of their conjugal love would ever threaten to give out, or was actually exhausted, He could be counted on, provided they called on Him, to supply them with new love, which would often prove to be sweeter, stronger and more lasting than the first.” |
|
| What would change in your marriage if you and your spouse called daily upon Jesus to strengthen your love? How would your holy witness fight the lies of the world? |
|
| The simplicity and purpose of Plain Talks on Marriage is sure to help you discover the answer. |
