occasion. Please pray for all our Confirmandi as the day draws<br />
near.<br />
Our second graders are getting very excited about receiving<br />
Jesus for the first time in their First Holy Communion. What a<br />
great way to begin the Year <strong>of</strong> the Eucharist which started on<br />
Holy Thursday, April 1.<br />
The Faith Formation <strong>of</strong>fice is also excited about five junior<br />
high children who are being tutored in their faith, getting them<br />
ready to enter the Faith Formation classrooms next school year.<br />
Four <strong>of</strong> these junior high youth are also in preparation for<br />
receiving their First Reconciliation and First Communion by<br />
the end <strong>of</strong> summer. The fifth junior high youth is beginning<br />
preparations for her Confirmation next school year. They are a<br />
great group <strong>of</strong> youth to work with, and we hope to get a lot<br />
accomplished.<br />
