Marriage

The matrimonial covenant, by which a man and a woman establish between themselves a partnership of the whole of life, is by its nature ordered toward the good of the spouses and the procreation and education of offspring; this covenant between baptized persons has been raised by Christ the Lord to the dignity of a sacrament.  In keeping with the marriage preparation guidelines for the Diocese of Saginaw, an engaged couple should contact the pastor at least six months in advance of their desired wedding date.
