Description
Clergy who act as the Church s witness to the Sacrament of Matrimony will treasure this beautiful ritual book, which celebrates the intimate community of life and love by which spouses are no longer two, but one flesh.
Bishops, priests, and deacons alike will be delighted with this second typical edition, which includes new blessings, sample intercessions, chants for the nuptial blessings, and cultural adaptations for use in the United States.
