There’s a way to make a seemingly good marriage even better. The Worldwide Marriage Encounter (WWME) Movement has been offering weekend encounters for married couples for over 35 years in T&T.

At our “Is Love Forever?” seminars we discuss the virtue of chastity and relationships. Part of the seminar is dedicated to the meaning and purpose of marriage.

A monthly column by the Billings Ovulation Method Association of Trinidad and Tobago (BOMA-TT).This is part three of a three-part series that examines Pope Paul VI’s encyclical on human life, Humanae Vitae, from a female perspective.
“Let them first consider how easily this course of action could open wide the way for marital infidelity and the general lowering of moral standards…The young, who are so exposed to temptation, need incentives to keep the moral law, and it is an evil thing to make it easy for them to break that law…” (Consequences of Artificial Methods, HV #17).

“…concerning the moral laws governing marriage, that human intelligence has both the right and responsibility to control those forces of irrational nature which come within its ambit and to direct them toward ends beneficial to man…If therefore there are well-grounded reasons for spacing births, arising from the physical or psychological condition of husband or wife, or from external circumstances, the Church teaches that married people may take advantage of the natural cycles immanent in the reproductive system and engage in marital intercourse only during those times that are infertile, thus controlling birth in a way which does not in the least offend the moral principles which we have just explained.” (Humanae Vitae #16, Recourse to Infertile Periods)

Women have the most to gain from the knowledge and understanding of Humane Vitae (HV) as well as the most to lose from ignorance and lack of exposure to its contents.
In reading the encyclical, it is almost impossible to miss that Blessed Pope Paul VI foresaw today’s reality and sought to put forward the moral doctrine on marriage, understanding that man’s reason and will must exert control over our innate desires and emotions, in order for our dignity to be preserved.

Parents, what do you know about online porn, WiFi, spyware, firewalls, social networking sites and profanity filters? Do the terms “Net Nanny” and “cyber-bullying” mean anything to you? And the big question: does your child really need a smartphone or tablet?
These issues will be addressed during an Internet Safety Programme (ISP) at Arima Girls’ RC School, beginning Saturday, February 28 and continuing each Saturday until April 4. Start time is 10 a.m. The target audience is parents, guardians, teachers and other care-givers.
