Confirmation

Jack was confirmed this afternoon at home.
Jack's confirmation was beautiful....He was lying in his parents' bed with all of us around him (15 of us). He was able to make the sign of the cross, fold his hands, and whisper "I do" to each question Father asked him for his profession of faith. When Father was praying over him, he would close his eyes....he looks so tired. Father gave him a tiny piece of the Eucharist also. (Everyone was) choking back tears. Me too...

Did Jack take a confirmation name?

He took the name Edward...his grandfather's name who was his sponsor.
A blessed day!

That's nice...but the wiseguy in me says that he should have went for the suck-up points and taken the name Louis. ;)
