Marriage Matthew 19:5-6 (GNBDK): And God said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and unite with his wife, and the two will become one.’ 6So they are no longer two, but one. No human being must separate, then, what God has joined together.”
Congratulations on your upcoming wedding! The Catholic Church takes the Sacrament of Marriage seriously and therefore requires some sort of preparation in order to make sure that you, as a couple, have discussed the necessary and vital issues involved in a lifetime commitment.

Request for Marriage Preparation in English
Marriage preparation schedule:
1) Does Our Lady of Mercy offer Marriage Preparation in English?
As long as we have married couples who are willing to take on this responsibility, we normally offer marriage preparation once or twice a year. Please make your request in advance and IN PERSON. Do not email us or telephone. We offer preparation for all Sacraments celebrated in English.
2) How does it work?
Marriage preparation throughout the church is done in various manners. Some dioceses offer a weekend retreat experience, some parishes have a series of talks given by married couples, while others have a series of meetings led by a priest. At OLM, we strive to involve at least two married couples. It is usually done in one or two sessions and sometimes we use multimedia resources to stimulate the discussion.
3) Where does the preparation take place?
It is usually held at the Church location.
4) How often do these sessions take place?
We do our best to schedule one or two dates a year and do the sessions as a group. Please sign up as soon as possible to make sure you will be able to complete the preparation before your wedding date approaches.
5) We are not OLM parishioners or live out of Madrid, can we make use of your services?
Every parish is obliged to make available the necessary services for their parishioners. Our Lady of Mercy is unique as it is the only English-speaking parish in Madrid. We give preference to our own parishioners first, as without their support, we would not exist. We do try to assist others whenever possible. The reality of marriage preparation at OLM is that almost 100% of all requests come from people outside the parish.
6) Does it cost anything?
Since the majority of requests are now coming from couples who do not support our parish in any way, we do ask for a fee. This fee can be reduced or waived if there is real financial need. Also, if you are in Madrid, you should attend at least one Sunday service as it is the polite thing to do.
7) What proof will we get that we did the marriage preparation?
Fr. Ron will write you a letter in English or Spanish certifying that you attended the preparation. Please make sure to provide him with your first names and family names.
8) What is the preparation like?
Well, it is not a course on how to be married. No one can teach you that. It is a time of sharing and listening. It is an opportunity to make sure you have discussed all the important issues surrounding married life. It should be pleasant and even fun. You will walk out feeling more confident about your decision or you will feel prompted to explore areas that you might not have previously addressed adequately. Topics include money, extended family, sex, children, faith, and conflict resolution. It is not a test, you cannot fail. Be open and get as much out of it as possible.
9) After we get married, could we help out with the marriage preparation?
Yes! We could use another couple as our church tries to help as many people as possible. You will actually discover that by helping other couples, your own marriage will be richer and stronger!
10) What is my next step?
Contact Fr. Ron for an application form. If you live near Madrid, do not call or email, just come to any Sunday Mass at 11:00 AM so we may meet you. That way you can meet the marriage preparation leaders as well.

Congratulations on your upcoming wedding, we pray that it will be a joyous day filled with God’s blessings.
Our Lady of Mercy is a vibrant and very active parish and our central mission is to serve our English-speaking parish family which covers the entire Madrid Province. Unfortunately, there is only one priest assigned to the parish and it is therefore important to schedule all requests as much as possible in advance. Most couples schedule their wedding dates six months to one year before the desired wedding date.
We do realize that there are certain situations in which a couple may wish to make use of a bilingual priest. Fr. Ron is the parish priest of two parishes and does the work of two priests. Therefore, he is unable to preside in ceremonies in other parishes. He has helped many happy couples who decided to exchange vows at Our Lady of Mercy.

CONGRATULATIONS AGAIN!

Hermanos, imploremos La bendición de Dios Padre sobre estos esposos N. y N. para que, unidos en Cristo por el vínculo santo del matrimonio y por el sacramento del Cuerpo y la Sangre del Señor, formen un solo corazón y una sola alma. My dear friends, let us turn to the Lord and pray that he will bless with his grace this woman N now married in Christ to this man N. and that (through the sacrament of the body and blood of Christ), he will unite in love the couple he has joined in this holy bond. **Señor, tú que con tu poder lo hiciste todo de la nada y, desde los principios de la creación, modelaste al hombre y a la mujer a tu imagen y semejanza, y constituiste a cada uno como ayuda y compañía inseparable del otro, de modo que no fueran dos seres sino uno solo, enseñándonos que nunca es lícito separar lo que tú quisiste unir; **Father, by your power you have made everything out of nothing. In the beginning you created the universe and made humankind in your own likeness. You gave man the constant help of woman so that man and woman should no longer be two, but one flesh, and you teach us that what you have united may never be divided. **Señor, tú que con un designio maravilloso consagraste la unión conyugal para prefigurar en ella la unión de Cristo y de La Iglesia. **Father, you have made the union of man and wife so holy a mystery that it symbolizes the marriage of Christ and his Church. **Señor, tú que has querido la unión del hombre y la mujer y has bendecido esta comunidad, establecida desde el principio con la única bendición que no fue abolida ni por la pena del pecado original, ni por ci castigo del diluvio; **Father, by your plan man and woman are united, and married life has been established as the one blessing that was not forfeited by original sin or washed away in the flood. Mira con bondad a esta hija tuya que, unida en matrimonio, quiere que tu bendición la acompañe. Concédele el don del amor y de la paz y que siga siempre el ejemplo de las santas mujeres, cuya alabanza proclama la Escritura. Que confíe en ella el corazón de su esposo y que, reconociéndola éste como compañera de igual dignidad y coheredera de la vida de la gracia, Ia respete debidamente y la ame siempre con el amor con que Cristo amó a su Iglesia.

Y ahora, Señor, te suplicamos que estos hijos tuyos permanezcan ligados a la fe y a tus mandamientos y que, fieles a un solo amor, sean ejemplares por la integridad de sus costumbres; que, fortalecidos con el Evangelio, sean testigos de Cristo delante de todos; (sean fecundos en hijos, padres intachables, vean ambos a los hijos de sus hijos) y, transcurrida una ancianidad feliz, alcancen la felicidad de los justos en el Reino de los cielos.
