In the eyes of the Lord...

My twins are official members of the Church! They have been confirmed and received their First Eucharist. What a beautiful ceremony we had with the Bishop Albert LeGatt presiding. Jack and Kathryn were very excited about their big day and even more so in learning that they were receiving new names as well. Jack chose Denis as an honor to his Dad along with the fact that Denis is the patron saint of France. Kathryn chose Cecilia, which is her great-grandmother's name, and who is also the patron saint of music. Obviously, with the kids genealogical French background on Dennis' side and the fact that they speak French every day in school; choosing French confirmation names was one of the easiest parts of our journey to this evening.

Jackson McKenzie Denis and Kathryn Mae Cecilia received Bibles with their names embossed and a new rosary too. From the Church they received a bracelet with a medallion of St. Ann, who is the patron of our parish. Dennis and I are very proud of them and it was inspiring to watch these little souls become so immersed in the Spirit. We as a family continue to be blessed in our journey with the Lord. God Bless you all.




Looking stylish and super excited about their evening
