Sacrament of Matrimony

The Church looks on marriage as a covenant, by which a man and a woman establish between themselves a partnership of the whole of life (Catechism 1601).  In its understanding of marriage, the Church looks back to the union between man and woman ordained by God in the Garden of Eden (Genesis 1-2).  Christ worked his first miracle in the context of a wedding feast.  In the Sacrament of Matrimony, the married couple become, in their unity and in their love for one another, an efficacious sign of Christ's presence (Catechism 1613).   Please contact the Church Office to set up an appointment with a Priest, 813.689.4900.
