Join us in praying the Novena for Reconciliation in Marriage!

Marriage is a great gift God has given to us. From the beginning of creation, God intended for man and woman to be bound together for life as husband and wife. After the Fall of Adam and Eve, sin entered both the world and marriage. 

In our fallen world, there are many reasons why husbands and wives might have difficulty in their marriage. Personal faults, sins, and other struggles can drive great distance between spouses and lead to a lot of suffering.

In some troubled marriages, reconciliation between spouses can be very difficult or even impossible. Sometimes, spouses separate or divorce because it seems that they cannot reach reconciliation. But we can always turn to God for help in even the most troubled marriages.

Let’s offer prayers in this Novena for Reconciliation in Marriage that God will bring all troubled marriages to true reconciliation.
