What is Confirmation? Well, it is "the opportunity for an individual Christian, relying on God's promise given in Holy Baptism, to make a personal public confession of the faith and a lifelong pledge of fidelity to Christ."  Yesterday I was able to watch the confirmands, (some being my students and friends) do just that.  I was so proud of Sebek, Andrew, Lukasz, Agnieszka, and Adrian. What are these promises of God, given in Baptism?  Forgiveness of sins, it rescues from death and the devil, and gives eternal salvation to all who believe!   Afterwards, I was invited to Iza's house to celebrate with Sebek.  As you can see....we have silly time together :) Wow, just as I was writing this I realized the need to be back in an English speaking country.....did you notice my Polish mistake of leaving out articles? Ahhh....I think I'm forgetting English?  Is this possible? Anyways, please keep these confirmands in your prayers...that they continue to stand firm in their faith until life everlasting :)
