Catholic World View and Teacher Witness

The catholic world view on marriage is that it is a sacred promise between a man and a woman that bonds them spiritually forever. According the Catholic
religion, the sacrament of marriage has the promise of procreation and the purpose of physical intimacy between the male and female as a sign and pledge
of spiritual communion. In my life I have witnessed the beauty of the sacrament of marriage through the marriage of my parents. My parents share a
strong bond and have been together for over 30 years, throughout their relationship they have grown in their bond together and also their bond with God.
Through their time together they have had 3 beautiful children and live a rich life full of love and goodness. I one day hope to have a marriage like my
parents and would love to share this with the students as an example of the sacredness of the sacrament of marriage.
