Bishop David M. O’Connell, C.M., will be principal celebrant and homilist for two October Masses to honor the first, 25th and 50th anniversaries of couples around the Diocese, and to impart his episcopal blessing. The event is sponsored by the Department of Evangelization and Family Life, assisted by the Office of Worship.

The Oct. 2 Mass for couples in Burlington and Mercer Counties will take place in St. Mary of the Assumption Cathedral, 149 N. Warren St., Trenton; the Oct. 9 Mass for couples in Monmouth and Ocean Counties will take place in St. Robert Bellarmine Co-Cathedral, 61 Georgia Rd., Freehold.

Mass times will be at 3 p.m. on both dates, during which couples will have an opportunity to renew their vows. A reception for the couples, their families and community will follow after each Mass.
