My MIL is having her first confession, first communion and confirmation next weekend. I'm so sad we won't be able to be there but please join me in praying for her this week. We are so excited to have her join the church. She is 66 years old--it's never too late.

It went great! She had Confession before Mass, then Eucharist during and was confirmed after Mass. We couldn't be there but my oldest son was spending the week with her and so he got to be there. He even helped hold the book for the priest during her Confirmation. I think that will always be a special memory for Liam and his grandmother.
It is such a blessing and miracle that she is part of our church now. It had been an area of contention between us so I'm so happy to welcome her home.
