CONFIRMATION: This week Bishop Robert Cunningham, Bishop of the Diocese of Ogdensburg, is our guest at the 4:00 PM as he celebrates Mass with us and administers the sacrament of Confirmation to 16 young persons of our parish. Confirmation is one of the Sacraments of Initiation by which young persons become young adults in the Catholic Church. Along with the Holy Eucharist Confirmation builds on what was begun at Baptism and nourished in Holy Eucharist. It completes the process of initiation into the Catholic Church. At Confirmation, at the invitation of the Bishop, the young adult renews the promises made at Baptism by parents and godparents. This is called confirmation because the faith given in Baptism is now confirmed and made strong. Those confirmed this week have participated in 2 years of religion classes and spiritual preparation. Each of them have chosen a Sponsor who has assisted them during these 2 years of preparation. They have also completed hours of public or community service. We thank them for their dedication to this preparation. We also thank their parents and sponsors, and Mrs. Beth Christon who has assisted in this program. Those confirmed are: Melissa Doherty Matthew Drollette Jeremy Favaro Jordon Freeman Shauna Freeman Joshua Herron Kaila Inman Mitchell Lefevre Katie McCasland David Miller Kayla Nason Rachel Plumley Kenneth Ramsey Kyle Rascoe Sarah Ryan Kaitlyn Wood
