Three of our sons are being confirmed tonight, in our new parish here in the West.

Would you please pray for them, that they truly experience a new outpouring of grace from this sacrament?

We are very excited for them! Yet it will be the first time any of my children has received a sacrament w/o their **entire** extended family with them. Just dh and I. God is doing something different in our lives right now. We are trying hard to lean into it...

Thanks!

Prayers, Tami! How exciting!!

Have you moved and I missed that? Where are you in the West?

Or, are you just WEST of where you USED to live?

Sometimes there is a difference

Yes, Chari, we moved last July. And yes, I'm in the West - the Wild Wild West: Wyoming - westernmost part, too!!! A very far cry from my mid-Atlantic roots!
