World Congress of Families Welcomes Pope Francis and The World Meeting of Families
Pope Francis reminds us of the eternal perspective regarding all that is good about life, family, and permanent things, "The union of man and woman in marriage [is] a unique, natural, fundamental and beautiful good for persons, communities, and whole societies." Yet, the Pope also warns us that, "The family is threatened by growing efforts on the part of some to redefine the very institution of marriage, by relativism, by the culture of the ephemeral, by a lack of openness to life."
