Marriage

Overview

The Sacrament of Marriage, or Holy Matrimony, is a public sign that one gives oneself totally to this other person. It is also a public statement about God: the loving union of husband and wife speaks of family values and also God’s values. In the vocation of matrimony, husband and wife are called to be an image of how Christ has loved the church.

Please make an appointment to meet with a priest at least 6 months before the desired wedding date. All couples are required to attend a Diocesan Pre-Cana Marriage Preparation Program.

Holiness is now

You and I are called, by virtue of our baptism, to lead a life of holiness and become a saint— there is no alternative. Feels like a lot to live up to, doesn’t it? A little like an ultimatum. It can sound like God has too high expectations of us. It can bring us to two kinds of conclusions: Maybe...

The small group that changed my life

I was not planning on being friends with her. In fact, at one point when we had met years before, we later admitted to one another that we both thought, “She’s great, but I probably won’t be friends with this girl.” And then I was living with five other girls in a house after university. While I...
