Marriage

The Sacrament of Matrimony signifies the union of Christ and the Church. Marriage is a vocation in the church through which we live our baptismal promises. This sacrament reveals the very mystery of God in our lives. Marriage is always a serious, conscious, sacred commitment. Your choice to share your lives together in marriage and with this community is a bond formed before God and His people. In your relationship, you draw closer to God and to the Church. It is in this sacrament that Christ manifests unconditional love daily and forever.

Engaged couples are asked to contact the parish office at least nine months prior to the planned wedding date. This allows sufficient time to complete the Marriage Preparation Process. It is expected that at least one person is a registered and active member of the parish. Weddings are usually celebrated on Friday or Saturday (1:00pm or 6:00, 6:30pm), although they may be scheduled on other days as circumstances require. Contact Fr. Jim Caime, S.J., at (816) 381-9169 or pastor@sfx-kc.org.
