Great day for Sacraments

29 June 2022

What a day for these two! John Paul received his First Holy Communion and baby Ben was baptized on Saturday. 

These two share a special connection. They are named for St Jean de Brebeuf and St Gabriel Lalemant (middle names), Jesuit missionaries to Canada who were martyred together. And now they share special sacrament anniversaries too.

It was a beautiful, beautiful day with the Mass for the (transferred feast) of St Jean Baptiste, the baptism immediately afterwards, and hanging out with family who came to be with us. 

Welcome to the Church, Benedict Jean! Congratulations, John Paul Gabriel!
