Yesterday was Confirmation Sunday at my church. There were eight confirmands. It was a nice service.

After the service, I was invited to the house of one of the confirmands for a party. It was nice. I talked with the confirmand’s grandpa for a quite a while, because he went to college with my parents, and for a short time his dad was pastor at the church in Columbus where my nieces’ husband is pastor. Small Lutheran world!
How fun to have that connection!
Your confirmation service looks delightful. Congratulations to the young folks and their families! (That Easter cross is spectacular!)
