The mission of Family Life Coordinators in parishes throughout the Diocese of St. Augustine is to promote a culture of marriage and family, and to offer programming and resources in support of this. The coordinators are appointed by the pastor and trained at annual workshops provided by the Diocese.  Currently, St. Joseph’s Family Life program has some key initiatives 

1. Witness to Love - a marriage preparation program designed to sponsor engaged couples;
2. Together Forever  -marriage social events focusing on faith, fellowship and fun for Catholic couples;
3. Pathways to the Sacraments – a workshop that provides steps on how to convalidate your marriage;
4. Marriage Angels Training - a new way to offer help for couples in crisis that is under consideration;
5. St. Joseph’s Marriage Renewal – a two day retreat designed to help you Embrace your Marriage; and
6. Together in Holiness - a marriage conference series inspiring spouses to grow together in holiness.

Other ways to offer help to our parishioners are in consideration. If you would like to help build a culture strengthening marriage, contact your coordinators and watch the bulletin for upcoming events.Visit our Facebook page, Family Life St. Josephs JAX FL, for real time updates and information.
