Missionaries to the Family is an initiative to revitalize the domestic Church by sending out couples to evangelize other families.

The Impact of Missionaries to the Family

Sociological research indicates that 5 of the 7 Steps practiced by our Missionaries reduce the probability of divorce to essentially 0%. Furthermore, these same factors increase the probability of a happy marriage to almost 100%.

The 7 Steps also help to prepare families for the next life by scaling the heights of the spiritual life by finding union with God, who is dwelling in their midst.

We accepted the invitation to become missionaries with the hope of impacting our community. We had no idea how profound a difference it would make in our lives. We have discovered a new appreciation for our faith, our vocations as husband, wife, father, and mother, and the importance of nurturing our spirit through prayer.
