The first weekend of May we gathered at OLV for Claudia's First Communion.
May the 15th we celebrated Confirmation with Katherine and Sophia. I had the honor of being Sophia's sponsor. She chose Narcisa de Jesus as her confirmation name for an Ecuadorian Saint who was canonized in 2008.
And the Last weekend of May we celebrated John's First Communion.
It is such a blessing to get to witness our nieces and nephews receiving sacramental graces. For each of these events, my siblings and their families, as well as extended family, came out to witness to the significance of the sacraments, to offer our support and joy. As my brother Will offered grace before a celebratory meal, his words caught in his throat as he expressed his joy that John now gets to enjoy Christ's gift of Himself. It truly is a blessing to witness.
May they each continue to enjoy God's graces and grow in their faith.
