Marriage preparation normally begins at least six months prior to the proposed wedding date. A more extensive wedding policies document is available at the Parish Office.
The first step is to schedule an initial
interview with one of the priests. This can be done by
leaving your name and contact information with the
Parish Office or speaking with one of the priests
after Mass.
There are several steps to the Marriage Preparation
process--these will be outlined in the initial
interview. The goal of each step is to help the
engaged couple better comprehend what the Catholic
church understands and teaches about the meaning and
commitment of the Sacrament of Matrimony. Most of the
preparation classes are taught by parish couples who
generously share the wisdom they have gained through
many years of faithful marriage.
The marriage preparation series is
offered several times throughout the year to
accomodate the large number of couples who choose to
begin their married life here at Blessed Sacrament.
