Retrouvaille: Help for Hurting Marriages

Have you and your spouse grown cold and distant from each other?  Do you struggle to communicate or come together on common goals?  Have past hurts built up walls of tension and distrust so big you question if they could ever come down?  There is hope.  Retrouvaille is an international, peer-run program that has helped hundreds of thousands of hurting married couples turn the tide, find new hope, and rediscover the love that initially brought them together.  Surveys have shown that 3 out of 4 couples who complete the entire program are still married five years later with stronger, healthier marriages.

Retrouvaille will be held locally October 22-24, 2021 in Fargo. For more information visit HelpOurMarriage.org or contact us at (701) 356-7962 or via email at RedRiverRetrouvaille@fargodiocese.org.

Walking With Moms In Need

Can You Help Walk with Moms in Need? 

Pregnant and parenting moms in need are in our parishes and our neighborhoods. As pope Francis remains us, our parishes need to be "islands of mercy in the midst of the sea of indifference." Everyone in the parish community should know where to refer pregnant women in need. Inspired by St. John Paul II's papal encyclical  Evangelium Vitae (The Gospel of Life) to assess our efforts in building a culture of life, the intention of Walking with Moms in Need is to increase our outreach to pregnant and parenting women facing difficulties. To learn more about how to participate in this joint effort, please contact Tim Mosser, Respect Life Director at the Diocese of Fargo, at (701) 356-7900 or tim.mosser@fargodiocese.org. Or to learn more about services to pregnant women in need, contact Kris Haycraft, Director of Pregnancy, Parenting, and Adoption Services at Catholic Charities North Dakota, at (701) 235-4457 or ppas@catholiccharitiesnd.org. Thank you for helping support moms and their children!
