Calling all couples: newlyweds, “seasoned veterans” or anywhere in-between...L.O.V.E. [Living Our Vows Every day] is a new ministry at SS. Peter & Paul Parish.  This ministry invites couples to notice God's presence in their marriage through evenings of prayer, discussion and reflection.  It will also be an opportunity to share our faith and connect with other couples.

Our ministry gathers on the First Fridays of every month from 6:30-9:00pm (childcare provided upon request).
 

On the first Friday of the month, we will alternate between the Six Dates program and what we are calling L.O.V.E. Circle.  We began in September 2017 with the Six Dates for couples, a program written by John & Teri Bosio.  This program invites couples to come together for a short video, which introduces a prompt for discussion…and then couples are sent off on a date to discuss the theme/prompt. So, this time is primarily for you and your spouse. The date is for you to design, and it can be as simple as staying on the grounds of SS.Peter & Paul for a picnic that you have brought, going to a coffee shop, dessert or out to dinner.  

Beginning in October of 2018, we will start a new year cycle of Six Dates/L.O.V.E. Circle, but we will use John Bosio's "The Beatitudes: A Couple's Path to Greater Joy" as our resource.

Upcoming Dates:
February 8th (note that this is the second Friday due to a parish-wide scheduling conflict)
April 5th
June 7th
August 2nd

Then, in October we will gather for L.O.V.E. Circle, which will continue the theme from the previous month, but will be a large group testimonial/small group faith sharing format with time to connect and socialize in fellowship with other couples.
And then it will alternate each month…we hope you will be able to join us every month, but please know that it’s okay if you have to miss a month here or there. 

Upcoming Dates:
January 4th
March 1st
May 3rd
July 5th
September 6th

We hope that you will join us in exploring your marriage with other couples.  Look for more details in upcoming bulletin announcements. If you wish to learn more about this ministry, please contact Katie Maynard at kmaynard118@gmail.com.
