Marriage Preparation:
Convalidation

This program is designed for those couples who are married civilly and now wish to marry in the Church. Some couples, because of differences in religious background or a sense of distance from the Church at the time of their marriage, or because of complicating family situations, were married civilly or in some other manner that did not meet the Catholic Church's legal requirements for a valid church marriage. It is the Church's intention to provide couples with a sufficient understanding of Catholic Christian marriage to enable them to enter into marriage with integrity and knowledge. If these circumstances apply to you, please see below for Convalidation Weekend Program dates. You may call 510-893-4711 for more information.
