It was only a month ago that our lives were upended and Confirmation was postponed. It seems like about a year ago to me, and it might to you as well.
I have been asked many times when Confirmation will be rescheduled, but like many things in our lives, that has not been determined. Chances are that it may take a different format from what we were expecting, but until we receive guidance from the Archdiocese, we don't know what that might be. (And my suspicion is that they wanted to get past Easter first.)
Needless to say, when we know, we will certainly let you know.
In the meantime, I would strongly encourage your candidate to do a few things:
This is no time to stop thinking of Works of Mercy.
Remember that they continue until you meet the Lord and give an accounting of your life. While our lives are a bit limited, we still have the opportunity to reach out in service to each other.
You can find ideas on these lists for things to do in your everyday life.
We have commissioned rosaries for the parish of St. Emily. Available with either blue or brown beads, these were crafted in Italy. The crucifix is modeled on the one that hangs in the church and St. Emily is on the center medal.
This would make a great confirmation gift for any candidate confirmed here in our church.
These are available at the St. Emily parish office for $25.00 each.
