In the wisdom of Fr. Mike Schmitz, we discover that marriage transcends a mere contract; it is a sacred covenant. It’s a pledge to love and serve one another with the same selfless devotion as Christ loves and serves us.
As we plan our wedding and venture into the realm of marriage, let us remember this profound truth. In a world filled with fleeting commitments, let our promise be an enduring beacon of love, grounded in Christ-like compassion.
In wedding planning, it means prioritizing not just the perfect day, but the perfect foundation for a lifetime of love. It’s a call to choose each other daily, just as Christ chooses us, even in our imperfections.
In the modern world, where distractions abound and values may waver, let our marriage be a testament to unwavering faith. Let us strive to serve one another, mirroring the love of Christ in our actions.
May we find strength in our sacred covenant, drawing closer to God and each other with every passing day. For in this divine promise, we discover the path to enduring love and the grace to navigate the complexities of our time.

Heavenly Father,
We come before You with hearts full of gratitude and humility. We acknowledge that marriage is not merely a contract but a sacred covenant, a promise to love and serve each other as Christ loves and serves us.
As we embark on this journey of wedding planning and marriage, we seek Your guidance and blessing. Help us to always remember the sacredness of our commitment, a commitment made not just to each other but also to You.
Grant us the wisdom to build a strong foundation for our marriage, rooted in faith, love, and selflessness. May our love for one another mirror the love that Christ has for us, unconditional and unwavering.
In a world filled with distractions and challenges, help us to stay true to our vows and to always put God first. Give us the strength to serve one another with joy and humility, just as Christ served us.
Lord, may our marriage be a beacon of Your love and grace in this modern world. May it be a source of inspiration and hope for others, a testament to the power of faith and commitment.
We place our marriage in Your hands, trusting that with Your guidance, we can navigate the challenges of this world and grow closer to You and to each other with each passing day.
In Your holy name, we pray,
Amen. #MarriagePrayer #SacredCovenant #FaithfulLove
