Best Answer

Marriage is a Sacrament of Service (Mission) and not one of healing. Matrimony, according to the general opinion of theologians, is defined: The conjugal union of man and woman, contracted between two qualified persons, which obliges them to live together throughout life (Catechism of Trent on Matrimony).

In a sense, marriage can be a "sacrament of healing," in that, as the couple begins their journey there is a period of discovery that may reveal past aches and pains. If the couple works together on coming to terms with these emotions, "healing" will take place and a stronger emotional connection will develop and the foundations of the marriage will be strengthened.
