Marriage equality may be the law of the land in Minnesota, but the Catholic hierarchy is still in a state of protest. Next Wednesday, on the anniversary of marriage equality being signed into law, Catholics will gather at the Cathedral of St. Paul to pray against marriage for same-sex couples.

From the Minnesota Catholic Conference, the lobbying arm of the Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis:

Last year, over 200 faithful and clergy gathered on the front steps of the Cathedral of St. Paul in prayerful vigil the evening Governor Mark Dayton signed the bill legalizing same-sex marriage into law. It was incredibly peaceful and edifying to pray with so many for hope, courage, and perseverance to face what has and still is to come as a result of this tragic decision.
On the one-year anniversary of this decision, all are invited to gather again on the front steps of the Cathedral for a candlelight vigil and time of prayer and reflection on God’s plan for marriage. We will also pray for our state, its representatives, and the institution of marriage and family designed and entrusted to us by Our Lord.

The vigil is similar to one done last year when about 150 people showed up at the Cathedral to pray in protest of the marriage equality law, according to Minnesota Public Radio.
