Marriage
“… the Creator ‘made them male and female’, and said, ‘for this reason, a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh’. So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore, what God has joined together, no human being must separate.” - Matthew 19:4-5
Matrimony, or Marriage, is the sacrament in which a woman and a man promise to love and be faithful to each other for the rest of their lives. This sacrament usually takes place during Mass but may be conducted outside of Mass.
