JP II Institute

Welcome to Saint John Paul II School for Marriage, Family and human Life Studies.

We are a prestigious institution in the Catholic Archdiocese of Lagos dedicated towards promoting the authentic teachings of the Catholic Church on marriage and family life. Our mission is to provide a comprehensive education that equips individuals with the knowledge, skills, and values necessary to build strong, healthy, and holy marriages and families.

Siting in the heart of Lagos Nigeria since 2001, the Nigerian session of the Saint John Paul II School for Marriage and Family has operated informally under the Family and Human Life Unit of the Catholic Archdiocese of Lagos, offering certificate courses on Marriage Theology and Lived Experience, Basic Christian Counselling and Natural Family Planning.

We are inspired by the vison of Saint John Paul II and the invested efforts of Pope Francis to broaden the scope of the Institute. We seek to operate guided by the provisions defined in the Statutes as approved by the Holy See.
