Sacraments - Marriage

Marriage is a lifelong union between a man and a woman for procreation and mutual support, is a natural institution, but it is also one of the seven sacraments of the Catholic Church. It reflects the union of Jesus Christ and His Church.

If you are planning a wedding allow 8-12 months to prepare for the celebration of the sacrament. The first step is to contact our wedding coordinator, Kathy Fagan 970-926-1070 or email kfagan@stclareparish.com to check for church availability.

You must next make an appointment with the clergy (Priest or Deacon) who you would like to witness the marriage, or if you have questions you need answered before beginning the process.
