Holy Matrimony

The sacrament of marriage is a visible sign of God’s love for the Church. When a man and a woman marry in the Church, they receive God’s grace to strengthen their lifelong bond of unity. Marriage reflects a love that is self-giving and self-sacrificing—a total gift of oneself to the other. This deep, unconditional love mirrors the ultimate model of marriage: the relationship between Christ and the Church.

Are you engaged and seeking to be married?

Congratulations on your engagement! We are honored to support you in preparation for your wedding!

The Church requires marriage preparation as part of your engagement. Our goal is to help you prepare for this profound and lifelong commitment—uniting in marriage through vows before God. We want you to fully appreciate the beauty of getting married in the Catholic Church, where you receive abundant graces to build a joyful life together. Through this preparation, we also hope you gain a deeper understanding of each other and yourselves before entering into marriage.

Please call the parish office to get the process started.
