Kevin Joseph 'Patrick' received the Sacrament of Confirmation tonight. His forehead smells of the holy chrism as it did on his baptism.
In his thank you letter to Fr. O., Kevin wrote, I am glad to be receiving the sacrament of Confirmation and the strength it will give me. I hope to gain the knowledge to use the gifts of the Holy Spirit wisely.
Our bishop has been ill so he sent Rev. Fr. O. to do Confirmations.

Thank you for being a good example of a Christian man to my son!
Congratulations!
We have heard good things about the priest(Fr. Gerald?) at St. Patrick's.
