Diocese to Recognize Anniversary Couples

On Sunday, Nov. 10, the annual Silver and Golden Wedding Anniversary Mass will be held at the Cathedral of Saint Patrick in Norwich. This year’s Mass will honor the enduring love of married couples. The Mass will begin at 2 pm.

The names of all registrants and their anniversary dates also will be listed on a special Anniversary Page on the Diocese of Norwich website and included in the Four County Catholic. Couples may also email a digital photo in a jpeg format of themselves to be included in a gallery of pictures and a video on the website.

If you are celebrating a significant anniversary this year and would like to attend the Mass, please register by sending the following information — names, address, telephone number, wedding date, anniversary being celebrated and parish — to: Office of Faith Events, 331 Main St., Norwich CT 06360 or faithevents@norwichdiocese.net. Questions? Call 860.848.2237 ext 312.
