Father Peyton Family Institute
The Institute serves families internationally from two locations – Lima, Peru and North Easton, Massachusetts, United States.
The Institute supports the family life ministry worldwide by conducting research and studies aimed at increasing the spiritual and emotional well-being of families everywhere. With this information we are able to best identify needs and develop programs and materials.
In Lima, Peru, the Institute gives direct service to families through education, research and development, information gathering and dissemination. Founded in 1997, it has directed energy first to increase the awareness of problems faced by families and second to establish a response to these specific needs.
Founded in 1999, the Institute in Massachusetts offers seminars and lectures for adult faith formation and for improving family communication. Its programs also support family life ministers in their service to the Church.
