For many years we have held a "Renewal of Wedding Vows" once a year at the 5 PM Vigil Mass closest to St. Valentine's day. In the updated Order of Matrimony, we are now called to celebrate a Blessing of Married Couples.
"It is important to note that, unlike the previous ritual, the new ritual does not allow for an explicit reiteration of promises or vows. Since the consent is permanent by design and does not bear repeating, the renewal of commitment takes place in silence or employs a prayer of thanksgiving for blessings and a prayer for God’s help in remaining faithful to the promises already made."
Please join us!
