The ACU centre for Liturgy is offering a short course titled 'A Faithful Promise: Catholic Marriage—Covenant and Calling'. Presented by Prof Clare Johnson, Director of the ACU Centre for Liturgy, this course will explore the Catholic sacrament of Marriage as a lifelong partnership between a baptised man and woman.

This online event will take place over four Tuesday evenings between 7pm and 8.30pm, and each session will cover different topics.

The topics that will be covered are:

  • Session 1: Biblical and theological foundations of Marriage (15 October)
  • Session 2: Marriage as contract, covenant, sacrament (22 October)
  • Session 3: Living the sacrament of Marriage: unity, indissolubility and openness to life (29 October)
  • Session 4: Theology of Marriage in the Order of Celebrating Matrimony (12 November).

Teachers, clergy, seminarians, liturgists, pastoral associates, parishioners and all who have an interest in Catholic sacraments, or who work in marriage education or ministries of support to married couples in a parish setting, are encouraged to register for this short course.

Upon request, the ACU Centre for Liturgy can provide a certificate of attendance for teachers and others participating in this seminar as part of their ongoing professional learning requirements.
