The Family Commission of the Conference of Catholic Bishops of India (CCBI) unveiled a revolutionary matrimony portal on July 26, at the Archbishop's House in Panjim, Goa.
This cutting-edge platform aims to help Indian Catholics find their ideal partners, promoting stable and happy family lives.
On the feast day of Saints Anne and Joachim, parents of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Cardinal Filipe Neri Ferrão, President of the CCBI and Archbishop of Goa and Daman, inaugurated the portal with a blessing.
Dignitaries at the launch included Bishop Simiao Purificaçao Fernandes, Father Stephen Alathara, Father Arul Raj Gali, Father Duming Gonsalves, Karl Fernandes and Vinita Fernandes of Missionary Families of Christ, and Marlon D'Cruz and Diana D'Cruz of Crusader for Jesus with Mary.
The Matrimony Portal, integrated with the Catholic Connect App, promises a unique experience with its feature-rich platform.
Users can benefit from stringent profile verification, faith-based matchmaking, advanced privacy and security measures, a user-friendly interface, and free registration.
Accessible through the Catholic Connect mobile app and website, catholicconnectmatrimony.com, this platform has the potential to revolutionize how Indian Catholics find their life partners.
Father Arul Raj Gali, Secretary of the CCBI Family Commission, emphasized that the portal is more than just a matchmaking platform. "We aim to help couples build happy and stable families," he said. "To support this, we are providing counseling services to help resolve problems early on."
Father Alathara, Deputy Secretary General of the CCBI, expressed optimism about the portal's potential. "This will be a very useful platform for Indian Catholics," he said. "Our Catholic Connect platform, launched in January 2024, has already seen tremendous success. We are thrilled to expand our services with the upcoming Migrant and Job Portal."
Catholic Connect, an initiative of the CCBI, has been providing specialized online services for the Indian Catholic community, including daily mass readings, prayers, news, and information, becoming a beacon of faith and connection.
As the CCBI Matrimony Portal embarks on its journey, it promises to be more than just a platform—a bridge connecting hearts and souls.
The matrimony portal is available for free on the Catholic Connect App or at catholicconnectmatrimony.com.
