Witness to Marriage encourages divorced and separated Catholics to remain faithful to God and His Church.

Background

Witness to Marriage is an association for divorced and separated Catholics who have not received declarations of nullity and strive to be faithful to God and His Church.

Our purposes are…

  1. To encourage, support, and guide individuals who are civilly divorced or separated, but may be validly married to live faithful to the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
  2. To bear witness to the world of the sanctity and permanency of marriage and the value of the virtue of chastity.
  3. To support clergy in their accompaniment of divorced and separated Catholics and their work to promote a clear, supportive, and faithful message on marriage, divorce, and declarations of nullity.
Witness to Marriage is a lay apostolate in the Archdiocese of Atlanta Office. We are faithful to the teachings of the Catholic Church and we operate with the assistance and guidance of the Archdiocese of Atlanta, Office or Evangelization and Discipleship.

Who should consider joining us?

Individuals who are divorced or separated who are waiting for an annulment or recognize that their marriage is or may be sacramental should consider joining us. Joining Witness to Marriage simply means requesting to be put on our mailing list for meetings and other events. There are no dues and no sharing of contact information.
