Join us in praying the Novena to Find a Spouse!

The married vocation and family life are great gifts from God. Entering into the married vocation with a holy spouse is a beautiful and good goal.

But it is not always easy to find a holy spouse. Searching for a person with whom to build a holy marriage and family can be very difficult in our modern world. Many single people struggle for years to find a holy person who is a suitable marriage partner for them. 

Our modern society does not usually emphasize preparation for a holy marriage, and true connection with other faithful people can be very difficult. All who are searching for a good spouse should ask God to direct their search and to grant fruit to their efforts.

Let’s offer prayers in the Novena to Find a Spouse, that God will help us and all who are seeking to find a holy spouse!
