"The vocation to marriage is written in the very nature of man and woman as they came from the hand of the Creator." ~Catechism of the Catholic Church 1603

Congratulations!
Congratulations on your engagement! The entire Parish of Good Shepherd rejoices with you in your decision to enter into married life.
We look upon marriage as a covenant relationship that a couple freely enters into with God and with one another. It is a relationship of love and sharing to “last as long as you both shall live.” Marriage, by its nature, is sacred and sanctifies this relationship. The love that a couple shares is modeled after the self-giving love Jesus has for his people.
