 SOWETO, South Africa (AP) - Archbishop Desmond Tutu and his wife, Leah, were joined by Nelson Mandela, friends and family at a thanksgiving service to celebrate their golden wedding anniversary. The retired Anglican archbishop and his spouse exchanged rings and renewed their vows on Saturday before their daughter, Reverend Mpho Tutu, in a packed Holy Cross Church in Orlando, Soweto.
The joyful ceremony was punctuated by cheers and laughter and witnessed by the Tutus' children and grandchildren, former freedom fighters, diplomats, members of the government and the legal community.
During the reaffirmation vows, their daughter strayed from protocol briefly saying: "Now Mummy, you take Daddy's right hand."
