Weddings…
Marriage is a gift God has given to all humankind for the well-being of the entire family. Christian marriage is a covenant through which a man and a woman are called to live out together before God their lives of discipleship.

· The privileges and responsibilities of Christian marriage.
· The nature and form of the marriage service.
· The vows and commitments they will be asked to make.
· The relationship of these commitment to their lives of discipleship.
