 At the Eucharist

Preface of Marriage

O God, the giver of all that is true and lovely and gracious: We give you thanks for binding us together in these holy  mysteries of the Body and Blood of your Son Jesus Christ. Grant that by your Holy Spirit, N. and N., now joined in Holy Matrimony, may become one in heart and soul, live in fidelity  and peace, and obtain those eternal joys prepared for all who  love you; for the sake of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
