CONFIRMATION - Holy Family Church, Cassava River

On Sunday, 23 September 2007, seven members of the faith community at Holy Family Church, Cassava River, received the Sacrament of Confirmation through the anointing by Archbishop Emeritus, Edgerton Clark, DD. Confirmation was originally scheduled for 19 August, but Hurricane Dean took center stage that day... and on Sunday we were greeted by a heavy, heavy down pour for over 30 minutes that delayed the celebration.

His Grace, Archbishop Clarke, has said that he would come out to do a Confirmation, "even if you only had one candidate." We are especially appreciative of His Grace for his kind and gentle presence... while the rains may have kept a few people away, the crowd assembled was ready to sing and call down the Spirit.

Sunday's gathering was our third "joint effort" and church members from St. Mary's, Above Rocks, and Sacred Hearts, Pinto, braved the elements and found their way to Cassava River to celebrate!
