Marriage

The sacrament of marriage celebrates a couple's decision to be each other’s companion for life. In Community of Christ, marriage is much more than a legal arrangement. The couple pledges to live in mutual love that seeks to make real the love and compassion of Christ. Community of Christ ministers can perform this sacrament for anyone, regardless of membership, as long as local laws governing marriage are followed. (See Doctrine and Covenants 111).
