Caterina prepares for Confirmation

Cati is preparing to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation in a little more than 2 weeks.

This morning and early afternoon Cati and I attended a Confirmation Retreat at our parish.

The Catechist did a wonderful job facilitating the retreat.

Cati has been working on this Confirmation lapbook as part of her preparation at home.

She has chosen Blessed Theresa of Calcutta as her Confirmation saint.

She will be Confirmed in her name, as the Bishop says,

"Theresa, be sealed with the gift of the Holy Spirit."

Here is an essay that Cati wrote about Blessed Theresa of Calcutta.

Cati's Godmother, Pamela, will be her Confirmation Sponsor.

Please keep Caterina in your prayers as she continues to prepare for this great Sacrament!

She will be Confirmed:

Tuesday, May 24th, 2011

7:00 pm

at Our Lady of Grace Parish

Greensburg, PA

by Bishop Lawrence Brandt

All are invited!

(As fair warning I must add that we were told that more than 70 children will be Confirmed that evening, so it will probably be a long evening!)
