On behalf of myself, Fr. Brendan,
and all in the Parish of Ballyroan
we would like to offer you our
Congratulations
on your decision to marry
This is a very special time for you both as you prepare not just for a day in your life but for a lifetime together. It is important that you prepare well.
Your marriage is important not just to you, your family and your friends but also to God, who through the Sacrament of Marriage, promises to be with you for the rest of your married lives.
There is too the immediate responsibility of organising your wedding. There are various aspects that you need to deal with before the church ceremony:
"Love does not consist in gazing at each other but in looking together in the same direction." (Antoine de Saint-Exupéry)
From "He Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven," in The Collected Poems of W. B. Yeats:
But I, being poor have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.
If you have any further questions or queries, please contact Aine in the parish office.
