It’s that time of year! First Communions and Confirmations abound, even as graduations, parties and barbecues begin. As we enter a celebratory time for so many reasons, we take time to especially revere the incredible sacraments being conferred at the same time!
Check out some photo highlights of our youngest fully initiated Catholics who’ve just received their First Communion and Confirmation, all across the archdiocese! And while we’re celebrating the grace God has poured out upon them, be sure to say a prayer or two for them, too!
