It was very special because it was celebrated on the same weekday, the same 5:00 time, using the same songs and readings, and the same church as 50 years ago! Father Satish Adhav was the celebrant, and their children, grandchildren, son-in-law, and niece served as attendants. Also, their great-nephew, Carter VanDalsem, a student at St. Vincent de Paul Elementary, served as altar server. Afterwards, they enjoyed dinner and wedding cake at Chimney’s Restaurant in Gulfport. They are thankful to God for the gift of their Catholic faith and for the trust placed in His covenant through the sacrament of marriage. May God bless all couples who are getting married or celebrating anniversaries in our wonderful Diocese of Biloxi!
