Purpose: To affirm those who have said yes to the vocation of marriage, so that they recognize the joys of this vocation as they did on their wedding day.

Ideas: Write a blurb for bulletin; make announcement at Masses; give out marriage prayer cards, recognize couple married longest at Masses; hold a renewal of vows; pray for those in marriage prep as a parish; have some of the married adults who work with the teens give their testimony; hold a reception for married couples after Masses

Youth Ideas: Promote via bulletin board/announcements; write blurb for newsletter; ask students to interview engaged/married couples; make a card for a married couple they admire. 

Repeats annually on February 7-14.
