Dear Engaged Couple,
We are honored by your decision to get married at Houston’s First Baptist Church. Be assured our staff understands how special this day is for you, and that every detail is of the utmost importance. As you address the myriad of details related to becoming married, we encourage you not to ignore the spiritual dimension. As God’s first ordained institution, scriptural marriage should be viewed as sacred and approached with reverence. Your ability to successfully contend with inevitable marital adjustments is directly proportionate to the quality of your relationship with Jesus Christ. Above all, do not neglect this. If you have not already done so, we ask that you address the spiritual dimension of your life and future marriage by committing to seek God's direction for your life individually, as a couple, and by seeking his assistance in living pure holy lives.

“Marriage is honorable; let us all keep it so...” 
Hebrews 13:4
