“the Christian family ... can and should be called the domestic Church.”
Saint Pope John Paul II
In its commitment to helping build strong marriages and families, the Diocese has established a Family Resource Centre. We want to encourage, equip and build up the body of Christ in the Diocese of Alexandria-Cornwall. We accomplish this through a variety of programs and resources designed to promote:
Family Life
The Domestic-Church
An Authentic Catholic Vision of Marriage
Human Sexuality
Through the various activities sponsored by the Family Resource Centre we want to provide tools to families that they can use to strengthen and rejuvenate their domestic Church.
In addition, our goal is to support families in their efforts to build upon their own strengths as they experience various stages of life and growth development.
