What God Has Joined is a new retreat offered for individuals who have experienced separation or divorce in their marriage and are seeking to live out their lives faithful to their marital vows. The retreat is led by Catholics for Marriage Restoration and will be sponsored in part by the Office of Evangelization and Discipleship. It will be hosted at the Chancery of the Archdiocese of Atlanta on November 13-15.

Nathanael Block, and other Catholic speakers will guide participants to a fuller understanding of how to respond when a marriage breaks down.
