† FROM OUR PASTOR, FR. TROHA

Congratulations to all of our young adults who will receive the sacrament of Confirmation Sunday afternoon at the 5:00 pm Mass. We needed to have a Mass just for the Tina Ard Sam Mendicino celebration of the sacrament of Confirmation because of the number of young adults being confirmed. We will have Christine Ball Kathleen Murphy one pew available for each family of those being Larry Brown Prudence Murphy confirmed. That is our limit for social distancing within Lori Butterfield Geri the church. I will be the presiding priest for the Confirmation. Because all Bonanno Thomas Savage Confirmations in the Diocese of Cleveland were postponed from March until Green William Scordato June, all pastors of celebrating the sacrament of Confirmation for the re-scheduled date, have permission to be the celebrant of the Diana Eisman Elizabeth Triozzi sacrament of Confirmation for just this celebration. Ordinarily, the Mary Jane Galliher Leticia Sales Wilson is the celebrant of the sacrament of Confirmation. The priest is the Joann Hlabse ordinary celebrant for Confirmation for an adult who is being initiated or Bill Katsaros for someone entering into full with the , or for an un-catechized baptized Catholic. We were supposed to have Gary Thomas Keever Hoover as the celebrant for Confirmation back in May. The Bishop can Sam Kovalak delegate an abbot to be the celebrant of Confirmation also. Barb Malenkov
