Sister Sullivan, a graduate of the John Paul II Institute for Studies on Marriage and the Family in Washington, D.C., worked as a fami-ly therapist for eight years. As a Franciscan Sister of the Eucha-rist, she is passionate about all things family; marriage prepara-tion, fertility awareness and natural family planning, personal for-mation, marriage enrichment, and parenting. We are thrilled and excited to have her join us and we know you and your family will be richly blessed by her story. Bishop Gary, Fr Stephen Paine and Fr Dean Henderson will join us too as we pray, play and deepen our family relationships on the beautiful shores of Nanoose Bay.

The DIARY of Sister Faustina, writ-ten in the form of a journal, records the last four years of her life. It re-veals the depths of her spiritual life and illustrates the high degree of her soul’s union with God. The Lord endowed Sister Faustina with tre-mendous graces: the gift of contem-plation, a deep knowledge of the mystery of the mercy of God, vi-sions, revelations, the hidden stig-mata, the gifts of prophecy and of reading human souls, and also the rare gift of mystical espousal (Diary Introduction, p. 10, Polish Edition)

How well do you know the Catholic faith? Well, let's find out..."
Somebody was talking about a marriage tribunal. Could you tell me please: What is a Marriage Tri-bunal?
A) There is usually a Marriage Tribunal set up in each Arch/diocese to deal with petitions for declarations of nullity (annulments). A Marriage Tribunal consists of people-- priests, religious; and lay people—who have some knowledge and expertise in the process. These people fulfill several dif-ferent roles.
A Tribunal operates according to the Canon Law of the Church and, in some ways, functions like a court. But the difference is that—unlike a civil court—a Tribunal exists for pastoral reasons, and you will be treated with as much sensitivity as possible. The concern of the Tribunal is never to assess guilt. Rather, the role of the Tribunal is to gain a clear understanding of why a marriage failed, in order to free the parties and empower them to move on with their lives and pursue the possibility of marriage in the Church. B) The marriage tribunal is the divorce court. C) The marriage tribunal is the special, secret institution operated by the Canon Law.
I learned about the marriage tribunal and what an annulment is. Would you please explain to me: How does the annulment process work? A) If a marriage breaks down, either of the spouses may petition, or ask, the Church for a declaration of
nullity (annulment). A Church Tribunal (something like a court) examines the circumstances that led to the marriage brake down and any problems that followed. This usually involves interviewing the spous-es and some witnesses that the spouses name as having some insight into what went wrong. Following this investigation, the Tribunal may conclude that the marriage was not a valid one.
B) This is a secret institution and only few people know how it works. C) Every diocese run its own tribunal and has its own rules.
