The Bishop's Anniversary Blessing is the most important annual event in the Diocese of Trenton to honor the gift of marriage. Couples celebrating milestone anniversaries of 1 year, 25 years, and 50+ years deserve the recognition of their greater Catholic faith community that their marriage is a sacred sign of Christ's love for his bride, the Church, and a message of hope for the world.

In addition to receiving the blessing of their Bishop, there is something so special for these faithful couples in seeing their beloved priest or pastor concelebrate the Anniversary Blessing Mass, and especially in receiving his personal blessing.

On behalf of Bishop O'Connell we invite all priests in the Diocese of Trenton to participate in the 2023 Bishop's Anniversary Blessing event(s). Please provide your response by Sept.1, 2023. Thank you!
