Preparation is required for anyone who wishes to be married in the Catholic Church. Marriage, like all of the other Sacraments, is celebrated within the context of the Parish Community. One of the couple needs to be registered and engaged in the life of Ss. John and Paul Parish or in another Catholic Parish. Preparation for the Sacrament of Matrimony needs to begin at least 9 months before the anticipated wedding date and preparation for marriage must begin before a wedding date can be scheduled. Call or email Fr. Mark McGeary to set up an appointment to begin the conversation.
