Marriage, a lifelong union between a man and a woman for procreation and mutual support, is a natural institution, but it is also one of the seven sacraments of the Catholic Church. As a sacrament, it reflects the union of Jesus Christ and His Church. The Sacrament of Marriage is also known as the Sacrament of Matrimony.
Both must be free to marry in the Catholic Church.
Arrangements should be made at least 6 months prior to
the planned wedding date. Contact Martha Whitfield at [email protected] or call the parish office at 903-482-6322.
