Wedding Jubilee Diocese of Bridgeport

In keeping with one of the most beloved traditions of the diocese, Bishop Frank J. Caggiano will celebrate the annual Wedding Jubilee Mass on Saturday, September 25 at St. Matthew Parish in Norwalk.

The Mass will honor married couples celebrating 25, 30, 35, 40, 45 and, 50+ year wedding anniversaries.

Patrick Donovan, director of the Leadership Institute, said that two liturgies have been scheduled in order to accommodate the large number of couples who will be honored. The first Mass will start at 10:30 am and the second Mass will begin at 1 pm.

Dr. Donovan said there will be a limit to the number of guests that couples can bring to make sure the diocese can accommodate two years’ worth of anniversaries since the pandemic prohibited the gathering in 2020.

“We certainly hope we will be able to celebrate with everyone who wishes to attend. It is a beautiful celebration of Catholic marriage and of the couples who have grown in love and faith,” said Dr. Donovan.

In his homily at the Wedding Jubilee Mass in 2019, Bishop Caggiano addressed the couples in attendance, “You have found the recipe for a successful, grace-filled marriage: friendship,” the bishop said. “It is a life worth living and enjoying. It mirrors the very love of God.”

After his homily, the bishop led the couples in a renewal of their marriage promises. As they turned to each other and joined hands, just as they had done so many years ago, the bishop congratulated them, saying, “Upon whom are you looking? Your husband, your wife, but also your best friend. You have unlocked love’s deep abiding power.”

Pictures with the bishop will occur before the first Mass and in between the two liturgies. More information will be sent to registrants prior to September 25.

(To register, please email the first name of both bride and groom, your email, and your wedding date to weddingjubilee@diobpt.org or call Barbara at 203.416.1641.)
