"In the beginning God made them male and female....and the two shall become one flesh." Jesus tells us this in the gospels and raised the life of a baptized man and woman to the level of a sacrament. Couples are encouraged to call St. Mary's as soon as they can (at least 9 months ahead). Some folks have made the right choice to have a non-sacramental or irregular civil union made a valid and sacramental marriage later on; we'd encourage you to explore this great opportunity by calling us.
