Marriage Preparation

Marriage is a sacred calling!  Marriage is about God and serving God’s purposes.  It is a vocation just as the priesthood of a priest is a vocation.  Marriage is a covenant relationship wherein a man and a woman establish themselves in a partnership for life.  God is present in this relationship to bless, assist and guide you.  This relationship is ordered for the good of the spouses and the procreation and education of children.  Through Matrimony God raises up the “Domestic Church” where faith is planted in the hearts of children and radiated to the surrounding world.
