In honor of National Marriage Week and World Marriage Day, Our Lady of Guadalupe Church in San Bernardino (LEFT and RIGHT) and San Salvador Church in Colton (MIDDLE) celebrated a Mass and a vow renewal ceremony.
Then, after seeing and taking in our Holy Father’s messages, we now have a profound renewal of our faith in the Catholic Church, its clergy and body, and especially in the family - the domestic church.
The best way we can describe this week is that each event has given us gifts to now act upon: gifts of Love, Grace, Peace, Compassion, Service, Respect and Hope for the whole world, where Love is now our permanent mission.
