"Therefore a man leaves his father and his mother and clings to his wife and they become one flesh." (Genesis 2:24)
A wedding is a wonderful, exciting and often stressful time for any couple, young or old, embarking on this most sacred of life's journeys.
In the Catholic Church, marriage is a life-long commitment of love, fidelity and sacrifice that often stands in opposition to the usual world order. For this reason participation in marriage preparation classes is a requirement for all who wish to be married in the Catholic Church.
Christ the King parish provides engaged couples with an opportunity to participate in a home-based marriage preparation program. The program is a joint undertaking between our community and Holy Rosary Cathedral.
Marriage preparation is held twice each year, once in the spring and once in the fall and consists of five evening sessions. During these sessions married couples from these parishes share their experiences on a variety of marriage related topics.
If you are a registered parishioner of Christ the King and would like to be married here, we would ask that you contact Father Tonny at least six months prior to your desired marriage date. In addition we would ask that you make no arrangements for your marriage (i.e. hall bookings, invitations etc) before speaking with Father.
