This material has been carefully crafted by an experienced team of married couples together with a Catholic priest. With endorsements from Bishops, clergy, pastoral directors and couples
themselves this book and those for years B & C aim to provide a
framework to reflect on the weekly Gospel & affirm the presence of
Christ in the sacramental union.
In his forward
Cardinal Cormac Murphy-O’Connor prays that couples within
parishes may benefit from using the Scripture reflections in this
practical resource:
I am delighted to support this simple but highly significant and innovative resource. I AM WITH YOU Year A, is not just the final volume in a trilogy of reflections for spouses on the weekly scripture readings for Sunday Mass. The entire work, so lovingly undertaken and generously offered to the Catholic community by these faithful married couples comes at a time when the need to restore and affirm the true nature of matrimonial love has never been so acute in our contemporary culture. All of us, and especially parents are reeling from the rapid social changes and shifting mores, too often dictated by public policy, that are impacting so negatively upon the institution of marriage. Nevertheless, it is precisely because we are a people of faith, that despite these times of trial, we can and must hold fast to that which we know firmly to be true regarding God’s plan for humanity in marriage. It is as always, to the sacred Word of God which we must turn for sustenance, inspiration and encouragement.
