Weddings
The
Minister and Session of First Presbyterian Church are delighted
to receive your inquiries about marriage.
The Presbyterian Church
in Canada affirms this about marriage:
-
Christian
marriage is a gift of God. In creating us as human beings,
God made us for relationship – both with God and one
another. The marriage relationship provides for the full
expression of love between two people, and for the life-long
companionship, help and comfort, that partners share with
each other.
-
God
gives marriage for the good of human society, which can be
secure and free, strong and happy only where the covenant
of marriage is honoured. God gives marriage that spouses
may reflect God’s steadfast love for creation; and
that the family may become a sign of God’s kingdom
on earth.
-
The
apostles instructed those who enter into the marriage relationship
to develop a mutual respect and love; to comfort each other
in sickness, trouble, and sorrow; to provide for each other
and for their household in honesty, and industry; to pray
for each other, encourage each other and to live together
as those who inherit eternal life.
- Marriage
is, therefore, a high calling, not to be entered into lightly
or carelessly, but prayerfully, responsibly and with reverence for
God.
First
Presbyterian Church welcomes all enquiries regarding weddings
at our church. Our beautiful sanctuary, center aisle, magnificent
stained glass windows and pipe organ are ideal for hosting
this most important day in the life of any couple.
