Golden Jubilee For Zimbabwe Catholic Bishops’ Conference Catholics to go back to the sacraments. The National Marriage Tribunal is the point of departure for Christian belief and the hope of all married couples whose marriages have failed and want to re-engage and participate fully in the sacraments. 3. Conclusion The Tribunal work continues to be pastoral, bringing about healing to the spiritually injured members of the Church due to conditions of marriage. Christ gives direction to tribunal work when he asks his followers to “be compassionate as your father is compassionate” [Lk 6, 36]. That is to stand alongside the troubled and distressed, to take off some weight of their burden and to help them again lift their heads and their hearts. 62
