Marriage
In the Catholic Church, marriage is more than a natural institution; it was elevated by
Christ Himself, in His participation in the wedding at Cana (John 2:1-11), to be one of the
seven sacraments. A marriage between two Christians, therefore, has a supernatural
element as well as a natural one.
In order to be married at St. Anne Catholic Church, either the bride or groom must be
registered with the parish. To get the process started, the engaged couple must meet with
the priest at least four months prior to when they wish to be married. At that first meeting
the priest will set the wedding date with the couple. Before the wedding, the couple will
have to participate in the Marriage Preparation programs sponsored by the Archdiocese of
Chicago, and will have completed three meetings with the priest. To arrange to meet with
the priest, please call the Parish Office at 708.335.1792.
Only the priest can set the wedding date and time. This will occur at the first
meeting with the engaged couple. Weddings are held on Saturdays at 1:30 or 2:00pm
or another day of the week depending on the availability of the church building.
