The Office of Pro-Life, Marriage and Family ministry of the Catholic Diocese of Youngstown will sponsor two wedding anniversary celebrations to honor couples who are observing their 25th, 40th, 50th or over anniversaries in 2008.
Couples may register for the celebration that is most convenient for them.
The first celebration of the year will be held at 2 p.m. June 22 at St. Columba Cathedral in Youngstown. Couples planning to attend this celebration should register at their parish by May 19.
A second celebration will be held at 2 p.m. Oct. 26 at St. John the Baptist Parish in Canton. Registrations will be accepted in August and September for this event.
Both celebrations will include a Mass celebrated by Bishop George V. Murry, a renewal of marriage vows, a personalized certificate for each couple, an opportunity to greet Murry and, by prior arrangement, have their picture taken with him. A reception for couples and families will follow each Mass.
Those interested in more information or who want to register should contact their local parish.
