Chur, Switzerland, Feb 3, 2017 / 10:51 am (CNA/EWTN News).- Referring extensively to Pope Francis’ writing in Amoris laetitia, a Swiss bishop on Thursday gave direction on how to implement the exhortation, emphasizing respect for the sanctity of the marriage bond.
“The task of pastoral care is to convey to the people an awareness of the sanctity of the marriage bond, or to convey it again,” Bishop Vitus Huonder of Chur wrote in his Feb. 2 letter “The Holiness of the Marriage Bond”.
After an extensive introduction which quoted at length from Amoris laetitia, Bishop Huonder asked the priests of the Chur diocese to observe nine points, the first of which is that “the starting point for accompaniment, discernment, and integration must be the sanctity of the marriage bond.”
