Why pray with your spouse?
Jesus tells us in Matthew 18:19-20, “Again, [amen,] I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything for which they are to pray, it shall be granted to them by my heavenly Father. For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.” Praying with your spouse leads to greater unity, that is communion, which is what Jesus calls us to, with each and him.
4 ways to pray with your spouse
- You can pray rote prayers of the Church; the Rosary, Novenas for a special intention, go to Mass together
