THE
SACRAMENT OF MARRIAGE
Marriage is
a covenant relationship (I will love you
unconditionally), and NOT just a contractual
relationship (I will love you IF you love me).
The principal goal of marriage is not just
pro-creation, it is also the mutual love of
husband and wife.
The Sacrament of Marriage has an important
community dimension, couples by their love for
each other become living signs of how God
loves us.
Marriage assures a couple’s ability to sustain
an intimate relationship.
Marriage assumes a relationship to Christ and
His Church.
Required Documents
*Recent (issued within 90 days) Baptismal
Certificates for each Catholic party.
*Witness Statements concerning freedom to
marry. Form provided by parish. Two witnesses
are required for each person.
