Marriage preparation in the Church takes about six months. If you have been participating actively at least six months after registration in the parish, you may ask for an appointment with the pastor or deacon to begin the marriage preparation process.
You and your fiancé will meet with our priest or deacon several times.
Requirements:
- Newly issued baptismal certificate
- Affidavits from family members attesting to your freedom to marry
- Marriage readiness questionnaire
- Engaged Encounter weekend or Sponsor couple training
- Marriage license from the Harris County Clerk's office
