Abstract :
Marriage Care is an English Catholic charity established in 1946 to support Catholic couples whose relationships came under stress after the trauma and upheaval of World War II. 'Accompanying' and 'active listening' have been central to Marriage Care’s ministry of marriage preparation and relationship counselling since its inception. In the context of the Synod on Synodality, a small group of volunteer members, staff, and trustees of the organization undertook a process of reflection on marriage and the couple relationship in a synodal way. We publish here the document that summarizes their reflections, 'How Can We Be a Synodal Church in Mission?'
