Each share their perspective of how accompaniment has taken shape in their life. Watch at: www.cam.org.au/lifemarriagefamily W INTRODUCTION e all come from a family. Whether we are married, Wsingle, widowed, divorced, consecrated or in the priestly ministry, we all have a role to play in strengthening and encouraging families and understanding the depth of its mission for the Church and for society. In March 2016, Pope Francis released his apostolic exhortation Amoris Laetitia, the Joy of Love. It followed a call from Pope Francis for bishops to reflect deeply on issues pertaining to marriage and the family with lay people in their dioceses. This consultation process, along with two Synods of the Family (in 2014 and 2015), allowed Pope Francis and the Church to examine marriage and the situation of families in today’s world and has raised a renewed awareness of the importance of marriage and the family.1 The Holy Father presents this Exhortation as an aid to reflection, dialogue and pastoral practice, and a help and encouragement to families in their daily commitments and challenges.2 The Exhortation invites us to value the gifts of marriage and the family and to be a sign of God’s love from both within, and through the family.
