Your Christian
Wedding Service
A HANDBOOK TO HELP YOU PREPAREDear Bride and Groom,
Greetings and Congratulations!
I am so pleased that you are planning to have your wedding at Immanuel, Easton. If you are members here you already know how special you are to me. If you are not members, your wedding will be the beginning of a relationship in which I will be your pastor and Immanuel will be your church.
I have prepared this handbook in order to help you to understand and prepare for your Christian wedding service. I hope it is a help for you.
If you have any questions or if I can help you in any way, please feel free to call.
In His service,
Pastor Paul Demant
