Congratulations! We wish to support you as much as we can as you prepare to join your lives together in Christ’s Church. When “two become one” within the will of God – new life abounds! It is wonderful that you wish to make holy vows to each other before God and, indeed, invite God not only to your wedding, but into your marriage. We’re here for you in this time of celebration!
In the Sacrament of Holy Matrimony a Christian man and woman are joined together in a bond of exclusive committed and faithful love. As a sacrament, matrimony reflects the love of God who is Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Marital love is so powerful and wonderful that it shares in God’s own creative power in the conception and raising of children.
Please contact one of our priests at (717) 755-7503 to begin preparations for the celebration of the Sacrament of Holy Matrimony.
Diocesan regulations require all couples planning marriage to contact the priest or deacon at least nine months prior to the desired date of the marriage.
