Marriage
The sacrament of matrimony is also a vocation. Through the vows taken a man and woman are joined together for life.
​
Marriage begins with a wedding service in the presence of God and the faith community and the couple continue to confer the sacrament on one another whenever they offer themselves in the service of the other and the larger community.
​
Thus, marriage is an ongoing sacrament. The grace of the sacrament is there to strengthen the couple and should be open to creating and raising a family.​
​

Couples who wish to be married at Holy Family or Our Lady & St. John are invited to contact the Parish Priest at the presbytery to arrange for their preparation in the sacrament of marriage and arrange the date of the marriage service.
If you would like information about wedding music or flowers please see the Flower Arrangements and Choir/Organ section on the Parish Life page.
