Sunday 6^th May is a red letter day for twenty of our parishioners and their families as we meet for their confirmation.  Over these last months the group have been meeting for their classes led by Gareth and myself. I want to say what a privilege it has been for us to spend Sunday afternoons with such a fine group of young people.  They are a credit both to themselves and their parents. Confirmation gives them the opportunity to publicly confirm their faith in Jesus Christ and their desire to service Him in their lives.  I am sure many of you reading this letter will remember your own Confirmation.  Mine took place in May 1981 in Holywood Parish Church.  What also stands out for me is my memory of the next Sunday morning attending Communion for the first time.  As we support this year’s candidates why not take the opportunity to reflect on the promises you made when you were confirmed.  Promises to love and to serve Jesus Christ.  The world that we live in needs devoted followers of Christ to share his love and his grace amidst the brokenness that we so often see. Why not come along to this year’s Confirmation Service and quietly affirm the promises that you made.

Your friend and Rector. Andrew Forster.
