Weddings
One of the most wonderful sacred rites celebrated in the church is that of Christian marriage. Marriage is a gift from God given to all humanity for the well-being and betterment of the entire human family. It is a sacred covenant through which two people are called by God to live their lives in unity and love. In a service of Christian marriage, a lifelong commitment is made by a couple (male/female, male/male, female/female) to each other, publicly witnessed and acknowledged by those who attend the ceremony and sealed and blessed by an ordained minister.
You can find complete information here about weddings at National City Christian Church. If you have questions, please contact Rev. Steven Baines at 202-232-0323 ext. 102 or sbaines@nationalcitycc.org.
As an open and affirming congregation, National City welcomes the opportunity to host your wedding here at the church, or one of ministers will gladly officiate an offsite ceremony.
