“While Jesus was still talking to the crowd, his mother and brothers (relatives) stood outside wanting to speak to him. Someone told him, ‘Your mother and brothers are outside wanting to speak to you’, He replied to him, ‘Who is my mother, and who are my brothers?’ Pointing to his disciples he said, ‘Here are my mother and my brothers. For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and my mother.’” (Mt 12:46-50)

Attached is an article from Zenit.org that summarizes a study on divorce citing the significant short term and long term damage that affects children. For the many deacons who provide assistance in marriage prep and/or annulments, this is an important document.
