Today many eighth graders of our parish will be receiving the Sacrament of Confirmation administered by Bishop Barres. As we know, the Holy Spirit will come upon them in a special way by which they "are more perfectly bound to the Church and are enriched with a special strength of the Holy Spirit" (CCC, 1285) By way of this sacrament we are all more strictly obligated to be a witness of Christ and to spread and defend our Catholic faith. Veni, Sancte Spiritus (Come, Holy Spirit)!
