Marriage is the unique Sacrament which binds one man and one woman together in a covenant under God and His Church. It is a Sacrament of vocation, a response to a specific calling that God has placed in the hearts of a couple. It is a bond that lasts for life which is permanent, faithful, and fruitful. Marriage is not just about two people, but is the foundation of the family, the "domestic church," the most basic and foundational structure, not only for the Church, but for all of society.
Couples contemplating marriage should call the parish office for an appointment before setting a date. Nine months preparation is required. You must be a registered, participating member of this Parish for three months before a date may be set. Parish music policies, which reflect Diocesan guidelines, are to be followed.
