Under the title "The Shepherd at the Mass Wedding in Bkerké: Building a Family Is an Act of Faith in the Future," Cardinal Bechara Boutros al-Rahi presided over a mass wedding ceremony at Bkerké attended by 26 new spouses, continuing a tradition since 2009. He affirmed that this event reflects the symbolism of his return to the Wedding at Cana in Galilee, where marriage is regarded as a covenant of faith expressed through love, fidelity, and sacrifice, embodying the birth of a new family within the heart of the Church. He clarified that marriage symbolizes the transition from individuality to a community of love and life, and that divine grace is elevated through love and made steadfast through obedience to the sacred covenant. He also highlighted the symbolism of the crowns, which represent the dignity of the bride and groom and their free choice, emphasizing that marriage requires ongoing responsibility. The Church calls for the construction of families rooted in love and fidelity, holding onto the values of solidarity and hope despite economic and social challenges. He pointed out that Christ turned water into wine at Cana, reaffirming that love is a continuous gift, and that marriage is a daily school of giving and patience. He expressed hope that the vows of the couples remain alive and blessed throughout their lives.
