‘God is love, and those who live in love live in God, and God lives in them.’ (1 John 4.16b)
Entering into marriage is a significant event in the life of a couple. Whether it comes early or late in the relationship, whether it comes before or after having children, it is a time to gather, to celebrate and to ask for God’s blessing. Christians recognize marriage as a ‘means of grace’, a way in which God’s love may be experienced, and when we celebrate a marriage in church that is what we pray for.
In order to be married at All Saints’ you need to have a ‘qualifying connection’ with the parish. The church administrator can let you know if you already have a connection, or if you need to create one.
If you are planning to enter a same-sex marriage or civil partnership, we would love to celebrate with you and pray for God’s blessing on your relationship. While the marriage or civil partnership ceremony itself cannot currently take place in our church, we would be delighted to celebrate your relationship with music, readings, and prayers. Please get in touch if you would like to discuss options for this.
To enquire about marriage or a service of prayer and dedication, please contact the Church Administrator.
