Holy Matrimony

“The matrimonial covenant, by which a man and a woman establish between themselves a

partnership of the whole of life, is by its nature ordered toward the good of the spouses

and the procreation and education of offspring; this covenant between baptized persons

has been raised by Christ the Lord to the dignity of a sacrament.”


– Catechism of the Catholic Church, 1601

Scheduling the Church
Weddings at OLA may be scheduled for Saturdays at 11:30am, 2pm, or 7pm.

The determination of whether one is an active parishioner is reserved to the Pastor and is based upon regular attendance at Mass, volunteer work in parish ministries, and financial contribution of more than a nominal amount through envelopes or check.
