I'm Getting Married! Exploring Matrimony and Parenting in the Catholic Church

Office of Education at the Catholic Diocese of Allentown Season 2 Episode 1

In this month’s episode, host Genevieve O’Connor dives into the topic of marriage in the Catholic Church, just days before her own wedding. 

O’Connor speaks to the Allentown Diocese’s Director of Marriage and Family Life, Rhady Tulloch, and her husband David Tulloch. The couple share the ideals and expectations they had for their parenting roles going into their marriage, and how a strong scriptural foundation helped those ideas strengthen and develop when God blessed them with children. 

The Tullochs help O’Connor break down the Catholic understanding of marriage as a Sacrament and a Vocation, and how these concepts deepen and inform one’s life as a parent. They insist that attention and care for one’s marriage have a huge impact on the way one parents, and they give some practical suggestions for how to “water the garden” of the relationship.
