What is marriage?

As stated in the Catechism of the Catholic Church, “The sacrament of matrimony signifies the union of Christ and the Church. It gives spouses the grace to love each other with the love with which Christ has loved his Church; the grace of the sacrament thus perfects the human love of the spouses, strengthens their indissoluble unity, and sanctifies them on the way to eternal life.” (CCC 1661)

The sacrament of Holy Matrimony is a serious commitment to be taken seriously and not unadvisedly. The required and proper preparation for marriage typically takes six to 12 months. Therefore, if this sacrament is a consideration, please contact our office approximately one year before you make your wedding plans and set a date.

Convalidations: If you are Catholic and married civilly and would like your marriage recognized by the Catholic Church, receiving the Sacrament of Holy Matrimony is approximately a six-month process. Please plan ahead and complete the form below, or contact our office for more information.
