西方传统婚礼上牧师的证言(4)
May Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, always be at the center of the new lives you are now starting to build together, that you may know the ways of true love and kindness. May the Lord bless you both all the days of your lives and fill you with his joy. Amen.(The minister now joins their right hands together and says):
Those, whom God has joined together, let no man put asunder.
In so much as (Groom’s Name) and (Bride’s Name) have consented together in holy wedlock, and have witnessed the same before God and this company, having given and pledged their troth, each to the other, and having declared same by the giving and receiving of a ring, I pronounce that they are husband and wife.
Minister: (to the couple): Seal the promises you have made with each other with a kiss.
(The couple kisses.)
Minister: Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you Mr. and Mrs. _________________.
Now let us pray as Jesus has taught us:
Our Father which art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil:
for thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen.
