September 7, 2016 — December 7, 2016

The Pontifical John Paul II Institute for Studies on Marriage and Family announces the Fall 2016 Continuing Education course, “Theology of Marriage.”

At a time when living married love is increasingly more difficult and the meaning of marriage harder to see, this course offers the possibility of looking again at the nature of marriage and human spousal love. Guided by the teaching of St. John Paul II, the pope of the family, the course presents the Church’s rich understanding of marriage as well as tackling some of the burning questions that we face today: indissolubility; the Eucharist and the sacrament of matrimony; the role of faith in marriage; fruitfulness and artificial reproductive technologies; and same-sex marriage.

The course meets on Wednesday evenings, 6:30-8:30 p.m. beginning September 7, and can be taken toward renewal requirements for VCEA licensure. Numerous high schools in the Archdiocese of Washington also accept the course for CEU credits. The registration form is available for download at the right.
