This is the Sacrament of the family, the domestic church.
The primary purpose of this holy union of man and woman is the procreation and education of children and the secondary is the mutual love and support of the spouses. This sacrament gives all the special graces needed for the spouses to be faithful to each other and it enables them to educate and form their children to know and live out their Catholic Faith as true disciples of Christ.
The Diocese of Phoenix has a 9-month period of preparation time for engaged couples in order to insure sufficient time for catechesis and review of all documentation on the freedom of each person to marry.
Marriage Preparation classes are provided by both the Diocesan Office for Marriage and by our priests.
You must contact our parish office before beginning your marriage preparation and before setting a final wedding date.
