Photos: Couples celebrate milestone anniversaries at Honoring Marriage Day

Couples celebrating milestone anniversaries of 5, 25, 40, 50, 60 and 60-plus years in 2022 gathered at St. Mary Church in Alexandria May 7 for the annual Honoring Marriage Day Mass and celebration with Bishop Donald Kettler. The couples renewed their wedding vows during the Mass, and Bishop Kettler prayed a special blessing over them. Those celebrating 50 or more years of marriage were invited to have their picture taken with the bishop.
