Being the most elementary unit of any society and the Church family has given utmost attention from the very beginning of the institution. In the Christian tradition family has been considered as the institution willed and formed by God in the creation. So every possible effort has been taken always to protect the family and to safeguard marriage which is the foundation of family. In the catholic tradition family is not merely the nuclear community of husband, wife and one or two children, instead it is a wider reality with inter generational relationships of grandparents, parents, uncles, aunts, children, cousins, nephews, nieces etc. In a time when the family is shrinking into selfish nuclear units the family ministry of The diocese comprises of different commissions and departments that address all possible factions of family.
