a. Marriage Policy
Because God has ordained marriage and defined it as the covenant relationship between a man, a woman and Himself, Monterey Baptist Church will only recognize marriages between a biological man and a biological woman. Further, the Pastor/Ministers and staff of Monterey Baptist Church shall only participate in weddings and solemnize marriages between one man and one woman. Finally, the facilities and property of Monterey Baptist Church shall only host weddings between one man and woman. The Pastor reserves the inherent right to not solemnize any wedding based solely upon his conscience.
