THE SACRAMENT OF CONFIRMATION Sealed With the Holy Spirit
The Sacrament of Confirmation was celebrated joyfully at St. Francis on Saturday April 13. Bishop Luis Romero officiated and was joined by Fr. Peter and Deacon Allan. Thirty six candidates were anointed with holy chrism to receive the mark of the Holy Spirit and share in His wondrous gifts.

Thanks to music ministry for providing such beautiful accompaniment to the liturgy and for all who helped out at the Mass.
