All parishes in the Virgin Islands celebrated World Marriage Day at Mass this past weekend. Pictured right, three couples were honored for the longevity of their marriages and awarded certificates signed by His Excellency, Bishop Herbert Bevard, at the Spanish Mass at Ss. Peter and Paul Cathedral on St. Thomas. Left to right, they are Deacon Jose and Petra "Tati" Vazquez (54 years), Eduardo and Luzgarda O'Neal (45 years) and Antonia and Eddy Rivera (52 years).
