The ACE of Hearts for October 7, 2006

This Sunday's Gospel focuses, in part, on marriage. In memory of some of my favorite tests in school, I offer an open book, multiple choice quiz on Christian marriage. It is acceptable and encouraged to ask for answers from parents, married couples, and even your own spouse.

Fr. Bob's blog or the BCP might also be of use. Good luck and the answers will be revealed on Sunday at 9:50 AM.

a) admiration b) consideration c) joy d) destruction
