Synod Fathers, Dear Bishops and Priest: It is Possible

The October 2014 Extraordinary Synod on the Family focused on many different issues that modern families are facing today.

Yes an increasing numbers of people have experienced directly or indirectly the sorrows of broken families.  Yes we have to find ways to invite people who have strayed away back into the church.

But it needs to be said again and again: family life as the Church intends . . .
. . . is possible
. . . is beautiful
. . . and is the key to ultimate happiness.

Sure, it is a challenge.  It is radically countercultural.

But the beauty of it goes beyond the most grandiose Alpine landscape one can ever imagine.

So you, Church leaders, can . . .
-present it,
-show it,
-propose it,
-expose it,
-explain it,
-show the way to it to your flocks because you want them to want it.

Not only because it leads to Heaven but also because the journey to Heaven is like . . . a hike in the most grandiose Alpine landscape one can ever imagine.
