Sacraments of Confirmation and Eucharist

Celebrating Special Sacraments at St Joseph’s Church

On Friday, 7th November, our school community gathered at St Joseph’s Church for a truly joyous occasion—the celebration of First Eucharist and Confirmation for 36 students under the guidance of Fr. Brian and Fr. Jackson.

The church was filled with staff, family, friends, and sponsors, all coming together to support and witness this important milestone in the lives of these students. The atmosphere was one of reverence and joy as each candidate received the sacraments, marking a significant step in their spiritual journey.

We extend our heartfelt congratulations to all the students who participated and thank everyone who contributed to making this day so memorable. May this experience continue to inspire them to live out their faith with love and courage.
