Marriage
Matrimony is a Holy Sacrament, officiated by a priest, of uniting a man to a woman. Through this Holy Sacrament, the man and woman become one, for as the Lord Jesus said,
'For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife and the two shall become one flesh. So then, they are no longer two but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate' (Matthew 19:5,6)
