It's truly amazing if, after prayer and discernment, you have decided to enter into a covenantal relationship through the sacrament of matrimony in the Catholic Church. May God who brought you together send you His blessings to join you for the rest of your life. If you would like to be prepared for marriage through CCM, please contact Fr. Bibin Mathew, CMF at bibincmf@ccm847.org
