Becoming Orthodox

1. To whom it may concern,
   What is the progress of a person to be married in the Greek church. I was baptized Greek Orthodox and my finance was never baptized as a child. Does he need to be baptized to be married in the church?
   Thank You

   • Hi, Katerina,

     Yes, your fiancé will need to be baptized in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit to be eligible for marriage in the Orthodox Church.

     I would be happy to do that for him after he attends a catechism class. Our “Embracing Orthodoxy” class meets the first and second Wed. of the month in our learning center.

     Blessings,

     Fr. Philemon
