This week at CHOSEN we learned about the Holy Spirit and how in the Sacrament of Confirmation we are renewed in the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit – wisdom, understanding, knowledge, counsel, fortitude, piety and fear of the Lord. We learned that when we allow the Holy Spirit to guide our lives we begin to see the fruits of that choice – charity, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, generosity, gentleness, faithfulness, modesty, self-control and chastity. We also played some fun activities in the gymnasium and prayed a Litany of the Saints in which we included our patron Saints from our Confirmation. Next week we will learn about the Sacrament that the Catechism says, “is the source and summit of Christian life.” Grade 7 and 8 students, please join us Tuesday, May 8th 7-9pm, St Mary’s School. New members are always welcome!
On Thursday May 10th we will travel to Ottawa for March for Life. Once again, we wish to thank each and every one of you who contributed to our fundraising campaign! You will be in our prayers as we make this trip! May God reward you for your generosity!
