Introduction
“The Consecrated Life…is a gift of God the Father to his Church through the Holy Spirit. By profession ( taking of vows) of the evangelical counsels the characteristic features of Jesus – the chaste, poor and obedient one – are made constantly ‘visible’ in the midst of the world…” (Vita Consecrata, John Paul II).

Dear Brothers & Sisters in Christ,
It is with great pleasure and anticipation that we, the Archdiocesan Family Life Commission, send to you a copy of a document ‘Catholic Family; Become what you are’ for your use during this year 2010. Our hope is that every parish, church group or organization, commission and family will utilize this document as an important resource this year in meeting the call ‘Catholic Family: Become what you are’.

Happy Mother’s Day to the mothers of Trinidad & Tobago! This week the Archdiocesan Family Life Commission and Jubilee Women’s Ministry celebrate 19 unsung heroes; the wives of our recently ordained permanent deacons.
It’s no secret that today’s marriages don’t seem to last.
The loving “I do” on the wedding day in front of a packed church of family and friends, is being replaced by the angry “I done!” told to the estranged spouse, sometimes in front of the marriage counsellor or divorce lawyer.
