ST. CHARLES BORROMEO CATHOLIC CHURCH - BLOOMINGTON, IN
Matrimony
Marriage is a “covenant or partnership of life between a man and woman, which is
ordered to the well-being of the spouses and to the procreation and upbringing of
children. When validly contracted between two baptized people, marriage is a sacrament” (Catechism of the Catholic Church, 1601).
In the Catholic Church, the spouses are the ministers of Christ’s grace and mutually
confer upon each other the Sacrament of Matrimony by expressing their consent
for one another in the presence of the Lord, His Church, and the world. The priest
and the assembly witness the vow of Christ-like love.
St. Charles parishioners have first priority in scheduling weddings and must contact
our pastor at least six months before their wedding date.
St. Charles guides couples with marriage preparation for weddings scheduled at our church. Contact the parish office for more information.
