The matrimonial covenant, by which a man and a woman establish between themselves a partnership of the whole of life, is by its nature ordered toward the good of the spouses and the procreation and education of offspring; this covenant between baptized persons has been raised by Christ the Lord to the dignity of a sacrament.  CCC1601

Refer to the Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC) paragraphs 1601-1666 for more detailed information on this sacrament.

Engaged Encounter Weekends

Catholic Engaged  Encounter is a weekend retreat away with other engaged couples with plenty of  time alone together to plan for a sacramental marriage. It is designed to give couples planning marriage the opportunity to dialogue honestly and intensively about their prospective lives together-- their strengths and weaknesses, desires, ambitions, goals, their attitudes about money, sex, children, family, their role in the church and society--in a face to face way.
