“The future of the world and of the Church passes through the family.”

-Familaris Consortio, 75

It is with great joy that I welcome you to our website for the Diocesan efforts on Marriage and Family Life. Please know of my prayers for you and that I am here to be a resource for you, whatever state of life you are in. Marriage and Family Life in the Diocese of Wheeling-Charleston covers many areas of life; marriage-prep, post-marriage accompaniment, miscarriage and infertility services, ministries to those persons with disabilities, people who are deaf, LGB+ individuals, divorce, marriages in need, annulments, families, single individuals, grandparents, and bereavement ministries.

Here I will be providing you with resources to help you navigate life and everything that that may entail. If your situation isn’t specifically mentioned, I can connect you with the appropriate resources or Office that you may need. My contact information is listed below, and you may contact me, and I will personally reach out to you to ensure that efforts are made to meet your need.

I hope that you feel the love and joy for Jesus Christ that is so readily available to you, and that through your life you experience that closer relationship with Him who gives us everlasting life.

Yours In Christ,

Gregory Gust

Assistant Director for Marriage and Family
