What role did the church play in Romeo and Juliet?

The Roman Catholic Church is always a background presence in Romeo and Juliet. Friar Lawrence, a main character, is a priest. The church is there to marry Romeo and Juliet and to bury Juliet. Juliet uses a request to go to confession as an excuse to see Friar Lawrence. But the characters do not refer to the church or its teachings in working out their problems. The church is a part of their lifestyle, but not a guiding force in their lives.
