The Sacraments of Matrimony and Holy Orders are also known as the sacraments at the service of Communion and Mission.
""The matrimonial covenant, by which a man and a woman establish between themselves a partnership of the whole of life, is by its nature ordered toward the good of the spouses and the procreation and education of offspring; this covenant between baptized persons has been raised by Christ the Lord to the dignity of a sacrament" Catechism of The Catholic Church # 1601
Please contact the Parish Office six months prior to any anticipated wedding date. Couples will need to meet several times with the priest. Wedding dates must be approved by the priest witnessing the marriage.
Holy Orders is the sacrament through which the mission entrusted by Christ to His apostles continues to be exercised in the Church until the end of time: thus it is the sacrament of apostolic ministry." Catechism of the Catholic Church # 1536
