A Beautiful Confirmation Mass
by Corinna Ramsey
The Holy Spirit sealed Gifts in eight wonderful teenagers from Good Shepherd on Sunday, May 21 at St. James with a beautiful celebration by Bishop Haines. We were blessed by Deacon Sandy Sites, Fr. John Hemsing, Fr. Tom Suriano and Fr. Peter Drenzek who concelebrated.
The Spirit was alive. The youth were filled with smiles, and their families were so proud. Bishop Haines reminded of us of the wonderful, supportive people they have who helped strengthen the Gifts of the Holy Spirit in them. It was great to hear about all they have done to prepare for this day and how they plan to continue in their faith going forward.
We thank their catechists—Taylor Christensen, Randy Ellis and Sara Tippet—who guided them these past 2 years and all of their catechists along the way.
Congratulate these new Confirmandi and their families when you see them in our community:
Kaelyn Bilello, Samantha Drexel, Alexandra Grieb, Braydan Medinger,
Carlin Nolan, Jessica Platais, Griffin Tautges and Joseph Tocco
Please continue to pray for them too!
