As one of the seven sacraments in the Catholic Church, marriage is more than a legal contract. According to the Catechism of the Catholic Church, "the sacrament of matrimony signifies the union of Christ and the Church. It gives spouses the grace to love each other with the love with which Christ has loved his Church." Whether you are curious about how Catholics understand marriage, or you are engaged and preparing for marriage yourself, please see below to learn more.
