And he indicates four priorities: the witness of the families, the integration of marriage preparation in the life of the community, specific programmes for the forthcoming preparation, the participation of engaged couples in ecclesial life. After having spoken about the fundamental witness of credible and contagious spouses, we now turn to the tasks of a Christian community.
