Santa Croce Marriage Course

Santa Croce is one building in the very heart of Rome. A few steps away from the Piazza Navona and within walking distance of the Vatican. A very good place for a Canon Law Event.

The Pontifical University of the Holy Cross,  “Santa Croce” is located in Rome.  It was founded in the work of Opus Dei.  It is known for many excellent major courses of studies including Canon Law.  Its faculty in Canon Law is well known, well published and oriented to its students in all the best ways.  If there were a Harvard or Yale in Pontifical Universities, this would be in that class.  Every three years Santa Croce hosts a conference on Marriage Law and Canonical Procedure.  The next one will be the ninth such program.  Today Santa Croce announced that we will have to wait an extra year for its presentation.  That is truly a shame.  It is one of the best courses on marriage law in the Church (if not the best).   It’s a good decision though.  It would have been held in 2025, but with that being a Holy Year, Rome will be one chaotic mob scene.  Travel and accommodations are already full.  Another concern was the travel and accommodation price increases already in place across the board.   The New dates are September 21 through 25, 2026.   Every course is simultaneously translated into several other languages, including English.  Even the break out workshops have been set up by language so everyone can learn in them.

Keep the dates open and start saving now.  This conference is superior to any other on Church Marriage Law and Procedure. 

Santa Croce describes the program this way:

The Course aims to bring lawyers and others working in ecclesiastical tribunals across the world up to date concerning the recent normative, doctrinal, and jurisprudential developments due to the applications of the Motu Propios Mitis Iudex Dominus Iesus and Mitis et Misericors Iesus, that affect the process of the declaration of nullity of marriage.

Hope to See You There!
