Every June, our Bishop invites those married couples celebrating their twenty-fifth, fiftieth or other significant
anniversary to a liturgy at the Diocesan Cathedral. Bishop Bambera sees this as a time to celebrate the couples’
role as a sacrament of God on behalf of the universal Church to the world. It is a chance for the jubilarians to
reflect on how they have been a part of the Church’s mission of helping people to experience and believe in God’s
committed, transformative love. During the liturgy, the couples renew their commitment to their wedding vows before Bishop. This year’s Wedding Anniversary Mass at the Cathedral of Saint Peter on June 1st, 2025, at 2:30pm. Pre-registration is required for the Mass and the reception. To register contact Bridget at 570-207-2213
