Nearly 300 couples celebrating one, 25 or 50 and more years of marriage renewed their wedding vows and received the blessing of their bishop during the Diocese’s 2015 Bishop’s Anniversary Blessing Masses that took place Oct. 11 and 25. Hosted by St. Mary of the Assumption Cathedral, Trenton, and St. Robert Bellarmine Parish, Freehold, the annual celebrations brought out family and friends to share in the joyful occasion with the couples of honor. Bishop David M. O’Connell affirmed the men and women as “witnesses of a life well-lived.” He asked that God “will continue to pour down happiness and health and blessings for many, many more years.”
