Marriage Enrichment Reading List
Below is a list of additional materials recommended by our friars for your further marriage enrichment.
This is an evolving list, so make sure to check it each week!

2) The 5 Love Languages: The Secret to Love that Lasts, by Gary Chapman. Recommended by Fr. Dominic David
3) Article: How I Save My Marriage, by Richard Paul Evans. Recommended by Father Dominic David
Tuesday Evenings at 8:00 pm from August 4th Through September 8th.
Recently Fr. Dominic David announced that he and Fr. Thomas Aquinas are offering a summer marriage enrichment series (you can view the announcement here)! Based on the materials for our new marriage preparation program, Witness to Love, this course will help married couples to discern both areas of strength and areas that need growth in virtue. Our friars will provide helpful explanations and practical suggestions, in addition to answering questions.
The program begins on Tuesday, August 4th at 8:00 pm and will run through September 8th. For six Tuesday evenings tune in to a live-streamed session with one of our priests. During the week, spend time with your spouse reflecting on your marriage and your path to growth in virtue. The sessions will be recorded, so that couples who can't attend live each week can still benefit from each session.
To register, please visit blessed-sacrament.org/sme-2020. The registration fee is $7.50 for the Witness to Love program book (after parish subsidy). Please call the parish office at 206-547-3020 ext. 101 if you need scholarship assistance.
