The sacrament of Matrimony signifies the union of Christ and the Church. Marriage is a vocation in the church through which we live our baptismal promises. This sacrament reveals the very mystery of God in our lives. Marriage is always a very serious, conscious, sacred commitment. Your choice to share your lives together in marriage and with this community is a bond formed before God and His people. In your relationship, you draw closer to God and to the Church. It is in this sacrament that Christ manifests unconditional love daily and forever.
