Although I had been Catholic my entire life, I was never confirmed. After volunteering for several years with youth ministry and the high school youth group, I was confirmed alongside my young friends. My oldest son, a high school senior and active parishioner at the time, was my sponsor! It was an incredible blessing in so many ways and for so many people, especially me!

The day of the dedication of the church building.

Attending the Easter Vigil Mass each year as it brings back great memories of when I entered the Church in 2012.

Witnessing "community" every Sunday as people greet and support one another, coming together in friendship growing stronger in faith.

Memories of Couples Retreats and Women's Retreats - leading retreats, being on teams, and building lasting wonderful friendships sharing our faith, families, and our stories... attending these through the years are some of my favorite memories.
