This weekend, seven of our parishioners will receive the Sacrament of Confirmation during our 10 a.m. Sunday Mass, at which the Most Reverend Fred J. Colli, Bishop of Thunder Bay, will preside.
We pray for these candidates that they may be strengthened in the gifts of the Holy Spirit. We pray also for their sponsors, families, and our whole parish community, that the celebration of the Sacrament of Confirmation may bring about a new outpouring of the Holy Spirit in our midst. To quote a seminary professor: "When the Holy Spirit is at work, it's good to be in the neighbourhood!"
