can be granted and more rigorous and expensive procedures for dissolving a covenant marriage than in the states basic dissolution But after studying the bills fine print the bishops found themselves in opposition to a small but detail: It requires counselors preparing couples for covenant marriage to explain its higher standards for divorce a subject matter the bishops said their employees will not explore in Catholic marriage preparation programs To do so would confuse or obscure the integrity of church teaching on the permanence of marriage they said in a statement on Wednesday Although the bishops position is nominally neutral they said they neither supported nor opas a practiposed the new law cal matter it places covenant marriage at a distinct disadvantage Catholic couples seeking a covenant marriage would first go through their faiths mandatory counseling Then they would have to seek out another counselor to attest they had been briefed on the required information about divorce their Catholic counselor could not provide Without effective support from any major religious denomination now including the Catholic Church the new marriage contract is being widely ignored by engaged Louisiana couples Chaim Potok has built an artistic reputation on the point where Judaism intersects with the profane world The Promise The Chosen In the Beginning My name is Asher Lev g

of Salt Lake Citys Pioneer Park had found a congenial refuge at the site The Rev Ivan Cendese assistant to Bishop Carolyn Tanner Irish said it was taking up to two hours each morning to clean up the area and that used drug needles were among the daily refuse The incongruity of inviting the poor to the area via the cathedrals food pantry program for the homeless while fencing the area to keep
