Friar Laurence helped Romeo and Juliet in a positive way by secretly marrying them and offering them guidance and support throughout their relationship.
In Act 2, Scene 6, Friar Laurence agrees to marry Romeo and Juliet in the hopes that their union will bring an end to the feud between their families: "For this alliance may so happy prove. To turn your households' rancor to pure love." This shows that Friar Laurence believes that their love has the potential to bring about a positive change in their families' relationship.
Additionally, in Act 4, Scene 1, Friar Laurence comes up with a plan to help Juliet fake her own death so she can be reunited with Romeo: "Take thou this vial, being then in bed, / And this distilled liquor drink thou off." This plan ultimately backfires, but Friar Laurence's intention was to help the young lovers be together.
Overall, Friar Laurence played a crucial role in attempting to unite Romeo and Juliet and bring an end to the feud between their families, showing evidence of his positive impact on their lives.
