Confirmation Candidates and Their Families Discover the Gifts of the Spirit Already Inside Them
Our year 5 and 6 students have started their preparations for the sacrament of Confirmation. On Wednesday night we were very fortunate once again to have presenters, Pia and Michele, work with the candidates and their parents to unpack what the sacrament is and why it is such a special event in the students' faith journeys.
One of the most powerful moments of the evening was witnessing the children and their parents identify in each other the gifts of the Holy Spirit and be able to so clearly articulate how the Spirit comes to life in all of us in our daily lives.
