Marriage

Marriage as Sacrament…
Marriage is a serious sacred commitment.  Through it, husband and wife are called on to draw closer to God and to each other in a life-giving community of love.  Christ enhanced the dignity of marriage by making the Christian marriage relationship a Sacrament—a living expression of His love for us, His followers.  Just as Christ continues to love us, in marriage we are to love one another. (Marriage Preparation Guidelines, Archdiocese of Cincinnati)
