Today, the Church celebrates the feast day of St. Valentine. In honor of St. Valentine, the program of group marriage is offered for those who cannot apply for the Sacrament of Marriage for many reason in every year. The primary intention of this program is to encourage the couples to build the Christian family faithfully and to nourish their spiritual need so that they may become the light of Christ that shines in their families as well as in their environment. During this program, the fourteen pair of couples – seven from Myitkyina Parish and the rest from Shadau Parish – receive the Sacrament of Marriage at 10: A.M in St. Columban’s Cathedral. The marriage ceremony is successfully finished through the intercession of St. Valentine.
