Proof of Marriage Letter (Sample) (1)

The Proof of Marriage Letter is available free below for your church administrative office to download, customize, have Pastor sign, and then print for your church to give to their members upon request if they for any reason (to get marriage license, etc.) need to prove the Pastor has know the Bride-to-Be and Groom-to-Be for a certain number or amount of years, etc.

There are wedding guidelines for each state in the United States. Certain states in the U.S. require specific documentation that you have to submit in order to get a marriage license. It is the legal responsibility of each individual minister (Pastor, etc.) to know and comply with the law in his or her state where the marriage is to be officiated.

If a marriage is to be performed in a certain state which requires documentation from their church of the minister's authority to officiate the marriage, this documentation or letter should be provided free of charge by the church. However, if the church has to get the letter or documentation notarized to ensure legalization then they can charge a notary fee if needed.

If the members (Bride-To-Be, Groom-To-Be) whom are making the request for documentation wish to help the church with a free-will donation, the church can sincerely and graciously accept the donation.

The Proof of Marriage Sample Letter below includes this statement:

To Whom It May Concern:

My name is [Pastor’s Name], born in[Place] on [Date].

This letter will confirm that I haveknown [Groom-to-Be] and [Bride-to-Be] for about years now. Imaintain regular contact with them through the church considering I’m theirPastor at [Church Name]. They have a happy and strong relationship and loveeach other very much.

I will be performing the marriageceremony on [Date] at [Time]. The ceremony will be held at the [Place].

If you have any questions regardingthe marriage ceremony or my relationship with them, please feel free to contactme anytime, at [Phone], or by mail at {Email Address].

Yours Truly,

[Pastor’s Signature]

*I wanted to take a minute (during my email time slot) to thank you for all this work you do and share with the small church community. You and your staff (if you have some) are very much a blessing.Thank you, Elizabeth - PA - U.S.
*Disclaimer

*Terressa! I received the discs today!! A few years back I was at a small church that used your software and it was perfect for their volunteers to use. The church I am at now has 2 volunteer secretaries and one found your product and I gushed!!! Her first request is a directory so this will be perfect. God Bless you for creating such a great system (Shepherdbase). Regards - Tonya - OK - U.S.
*Disclaimer

*This is the 1st time I've visited your website and I just wanted to say "thank you". I go to a very small Christian Church and thanks to you, the forms you have for a children's ministry will keep me from having to "reinvent the wheel" and I am very grateful to you. We are a very small church (about 40 regular attendees) and 90% of those are over 65. We just had a young couple offer to help us get a Youth Group. Thanks to you, we won't have to do to much to get this off and running for the holiday season.Thanks again! - Kentucky - U.S.
*Disclaimer

*I do the tithes at the end of the year for a very small outreach in the city of Detroit. They had been paying thousands of dollars every several years trying to keep a database of their donors.

I searched last year for something less costly for them and came across your database (Shepherdbase). It is a blessing and so appreciated. Thank you for all your hard work and thank you for Giving To The Lord. Peacemakers Int. in Detroit on Chene street is another ministry you have blessed. - Charlene - U.S.*Disclaimer

*This website has been very useful for my ministries with Hospice, the Hospital and Human Services. I recommend this website to any church, ministry or agency that is supporting or ministering to people. God Bless You - Chaplain Dave - U.S.*Disclaimer

*I am a minister of the Gospel of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and have been tremendously blessed to access you and pray that God the Almighty favor you in what you do. You have enabled me to access ready-designed church documents. Thanks and God Bless You Terressa. - Bro. Mike - Kenya, Africa*Disclaimer

*Thank You! You're heart for giving free resources and making things so affordable is truly a blessing. My Pastor always says: "What you make happen for someone else, God will make happen for you!" May God richly bless you and your ministry to us and so many others, enlarge your territory and bring financial blessings with good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over!!! 10,000 Blessings! Leeanna - U.S.*Disclaimer

*Thanks for making this site available. I took over as secretary of our small church a few months ago, and I am having to create a lot of forms. This site is a blessing! - Vicki - U.S.*Disclaimer

*After years of frustration and being overcharged for Church Management software, I came across "Shepherbase" and all my problems were solved.*Disclaimer

This database:

  • 1. Tracks members and visitors
  • 2. Tracks contributions
  • 3. Organizes by both individual AND family
  • 4. Creates professional letters, relevant to church ministry
  • 5. Is easy to use
  • 6. Costs a mere fraction of other databases offering similar features.*Disclaimer
