Christian Family Life Education

Dr. Patrick J. DiVietri

$24.95

OVERVIEW:

Formation in Christian Love covers the spectrum of a child’s education into adulthood. This period constitutes what Pope John Paul II refers to as "remote marriage preparation." The range of the program extends from birth to 18 years of age and overlaps with the "proximate" which begins with the time of dating and courtship. Graphics and charts are used to bring concepts to life in a clear and practical way.
