• At least one of the parties has received the Sacrament of Holy Baptism.
• The couple shall receive instruction as specified by the priest as to the nature of Christian marriage.
• Thirty (30) days notice shall be given to the Rector.
• If either party has been married previously and the former spouse is still living the priest must receive the permission of the Bishop.  The approval process generally takes 4-6 weeks.
