On Saturday, June 28th, Ben, Mia, Lucas, Harvey, Charlotte Sam, Erika, Ashton, Heidi, Gabrielle, Louie and Benjamin will receive the Sacrament of Confirmation at Emmanuel College. This marks a significant step in their faith journey, as they will be confirmed by Bishop Martin Ashe. The Confirmation ceremony will bring together students from St Martin de Porres, Queen of Peace, and the Preca community.

Confirmation is the third and final Sacrament of Initiation into the Catholic Church. During this sacrament, candidates receive the gifts of the Holy Spirit through the laying on of hands and anointing with oils by the Bishop.

 

To help the students prepare, Bishop Martin Ashe visited our school today. He spent valuable time speaking with our Confirmation candidates, offering words of wisdom and encouragement, and answering their questions. It was a wonderful opportunity for the students to connect with Bishop Martin and gain a deeper understanding of the sacrament they are about to receive.
