Last Saturday at the celebration of Sr Maureen's Golden Jubilee, Sr
Zela made another presentation, this time to a couple who had
recently celebrated their silver wedding anniversary on April 25th and who have
contributed so much to the parish of St Thomas More. Maureen an adult
companion of the Impact Group (see link for more information) and Michael whose skills as
Mr Fix it have often been needed.
Michael and Maureen |
They were married at Sacred Heart church in Liverpool by
Fr Michael O'Connell (MSC) now vocations director for Missionaries of the
Sacred Heart in Co Cork.
When asked about the joys of the last 25 years, they
of course mentioned their two children Bridget and Joseph and talked of the family and friends who had
supported them over the years, some of whom have now passed away but who are
still remembered for their support.
So having celebrated 25 years = 788,923,149 seconds (see
link to post about Sr Maureen) we remember Michael and Maureen, and all those
who are celebrating their 25th wedding anniversary this year. We pray that the
Lord will continue to be with them as they seek to live out their vocation to
live together in good times and bad and grant them health and happiness in the
future.
