To commemorate the day they took their marriage vows, 61 couples marched down the aisle at Our Lady of Fatima Church in Coquitlam, BC. A thanksgiving mass and renewal of vows was officiated by Fr. Patrick Chisholm who reminded husbands and wives to honour and cherish one another. A modest reception ensued at the gymnasium.
A practice that was initiated in 2010 by the CFC Gift of Life Ministry, the event celebrates the union of couples who have achieved a milestone in their married vocation for ten years and onwards.
