Sacrament of Marriage
Please contact the Parish Office at 507-234-6244 to set up marriage preparation.

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

Preparation
Pastors of souls are obliged to take care that their ecclesiastical community offers the Christian faithful the assistance by which the matrimonial state is preserved in a Christian spirit and advances in perfection.

Signs and Symbols
Only those marriages are valid which are contracted before the local ordinary, pastor or deacon delegated by either of them, who assist, and before two witnesses according to the rules expressed in canon law.

Celebration
From a valid marriage there arises between the spouses a bond which by its nature is perpetual and exclusive.  Moreover, a special sacrament strengthens and, as it were, consecrates the spouses in a Christian marriage for the duties and dignity of their state.
