Interchurch Marriages

Friends:

As some of you know, I have been involved for 2 decades with Catholic Engaged Encounter.
CEE is a movement in the church that provides weekends for Engaged Couples.
Often these couples are interchurch--that is, from two different Christian tradiions.
In this instance one of the parties is Catholic.

Two years ago, the CEE community in our region invited me to give a workshop on the Spirituality of Interchurch couples. I was happy to do so. About 60 of the presenting couples attended the workshop, which I gave twice.

I shared the text of this presentation with Father Tom Ryan.
He asked if he could include it in his ecumenical e-newsletter, Koinonia.

The article just appeared.
It is entittle "Reaching Out to Interchurch Couple: Finding a Common Spirituality"

Peace,
