"The sacrament of Matrimony signifies the union of Christ and the Church. It gives spouses the grace to love each other with teh love with which Christ has loved his Church; the grace of the sacrament thus perfects teh human love of the spouses, strengthens their indissoluble unity, and sanctifies them on the way to eternal life."
-CCC 1661

We are so pleased you want to celebrate your marriage with us.  We ask that you start your preparations 6 to 9 months before the anticipated date of your wedding.  You should be a registered and active member of our parish.  The first step to planning a marriage at St. Bernadette Church is an informal meeting with the Pastor.  Please contact the Parish Office at the number below to request an appointment.  We can schedule the appointment and answer any other questions you may have.   We want to do all we can to ensure you and your future spouse have a long and blessed marriage. 

We have two Marriage Preparation classes per year in April and October.  Each class consists of 2 Saturdays from 8 am until 3:30 pm with lunch provided.  Both the bride and the groom are required to attend both Saturday sessions.  There is a $100 fee per couple.  In 2019, the April sessions are the 6th and the 13th; the October sessions are the 5th and the 12th.
