Summary, etc. Marriage has long been upheld as a deeply valued institution in the Philippines, shaped by strong Catholic roots and enduring cultural expectations. Yet contemporary social, economic, and religious changes are influencing how Filipinos approach this commitment, affecting marriage rates at the national level in recent years. And while previous research often examines marriage perceptions in the general population, little attention has been given to single Roman Catholic church servers, occupying a unique position at the intersection of religious formation, community involvement, and personal discernment. This study addresses this gap by exploring how single Filipino Roman Catholic church servers perceive marriage and the factors that shape these perceptions, utilizing a descriptive qualitative approach and semi-structured interviews. These methods reveal how traditional faith-based ideals intersect with practical considerations. The participants regard marriage as a sacred vocation rooted in Catholic teachings, but they also acknowledge the need to reconcile their perceptions with modern realities, which requires careful attention to this tension. Their perceptions are shaped by socio-personal dynamics, including holistic preparation and the social and spiritual environments in which they participate. In addition to this, the participants emphasized that the diversity of vocational paths, as affirmed in Catholic doctrine, upholds the equal value of both singlehood and marriage. Consequently, they express contentment in their current marital status while remaining open to the possibility of marriage when genuine complementarity is present, leading to faith-guided decision-making. Hence, the study emphasizes that each vocation supports spiritual growth, service, and personal freedom.
