25 & 50 Years of Marriage


We had an interesting day today.  The church had a special Mass for couples who have been married for twenty-five and fifty years.  The ceremony was lovely, and we all stood on the altar and as a group, renewed our marriage vows.  Then there was a reception at the parish hall, with lunch and cake and photographs. Of course I had to take a quick photograph of all of us on the altar, but it's not a selfie, so I am not in it!  Oh, us?  We were in the fifty year group!  How amazing is that!
