In the scripture readings proclaimed during Catholic weddings, we hear of God’s steadfast love for his people and our call to make the whole of our lives a response to that love.
The Rite of Marriage calls for the use of particular scripture readings as the primary way that God speaks to us about the nature and meaning of the sacrament. These particular readings are available below along with commentaries by Rev. Darren M. Henson.
