In this JUBILEE year 2025, we have experienced the presence and action of the Holy Spirit in the Church. On Sunday, March 30, 2025, at the meeting\/celebration held at Mary, Queen of the World Cathedral, with Archbishop Christian L\u00e9pine, the adult confirmands, and those asking for full communion, we were able to count 157 participants accompanied by their godparents, catechists and Faith companions. It is indeed the Holy Spirit on the path of the Church who radiates the light of hope on believers<\/i>. Indiction Bulletin 2025 n.3, Pope Francis. <\/p>\n\n
These adults, whose conversion is based on the Baptism they have already received, have decided to grow in their Faith and give meaning to their lives. <\/p>\n\n
They were all introduced to Archbishop L\u00e9pine by the representatives of their respective parishes, followed by a time of prayer and listening to the Word. <\/p>\n\n
Archbishop L\u00e9pine began with a teaching-meditation on “THE WORD OF GOD”. The Bible contains an inspired Word, and it is God who reveals Himself, it is He who speaks of His love for us and His commitment to us. He created us in His Image. Archbishop L\u00e9pine invited us: “to read the Bible in silence, and the Holy Spirit will help us to enter into the mystery of Revelation”.<\/i> <\/p>\n\n
Afterwards, small groups were formed to reflect on what they had heard, exchange ideas with each other, and ask Archbishop L\u00e9pine questions such as: <\/p>\n\n
What is Confirmation? How can we give meaning to our lives? <\/p>\n\n
Archbishop L\u00e9pine defined Confirmation as a “Sacrament of growth”<\/i> in the Life of God and a “Sacrament of Mission”<\/i> to give and to love. <\/p>\n\n
To give meaning to our life: what God wants to say to us, He says through His SON, His Word, because his Word resounds in our hearts like a light: “The Lord is the Way, the Truth and the Life”. <\/i><\/p>\n\n
The highlight of the meeting. … it is clear that the “Christian life is a journey that needs strong moments to nourish and strengthen hope”. <\/i>Indiction Bulletin 2025 no.5 <\/p>\n\n
