With the collaboration of the Daughters of St. Paul, a web site has been set up entitled: Theology of the Body: A Vocation of Love.

The purpose of the initiative is to underscore the contribution of Blessed John Paul II, who vigorously promoted life and the family, to helping everyone come to understand the human being’s vocation to love. Even though the content of the web site focuses primarily on the married state and family life, it also illustrates how all the vocations in the Church work together in a complementary and effective way.

The themes discussed concern the human body and its ability to express love: from engagement to marriage, from responsible procreation to chastity, from the priesthood to the consecrated life. To favor a deeper study of these themes, the site provides links to Church documents on marriage, sexuality, the priesthood and virginity.

The web site began functioning on 30 May 2011, Feast of St. Zdislava, the patroness of families.
