Amore Project
The Amore Project helps the whole Church by rediscovering the family as the domestic church, by strengthening marriages and those in the single life to recognize God’s spousal love for every person, and by forming spiritual families to live as agents of Jesus’ self-giving love in their neighborhoods and communities. The mission of the Amore Project is to develop the family, the domestic church, through the bonds of marriage, for the purpose of evangelism and ecumenism.
No meetings scheduled presently. Small, in-home, group meetings upcoming.
Diocesan Ecumenical and Interreligious Affairs Office
The Diocesan Office of Ecumenical and Interreligious Affairs is established by the Bishop to seek greater unity among those who share one faith and one baptism in Jesus Christ (ecumenism), as well as to seek deeper understanding among people of all faiths (baptized and unbaptized, or interreligious) toward a world of mutual respect and peace.
