On Sunday, May 3, Bishop Richard Sklba administered the sacrament of confirmation to 82 students. Con-celebrants of the Mass were Fr. Tom Eichenberger and Fr. Justin Lopina. Those confirmed received the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit which are: wisdom, understanding, counsel, knowledge, fortitude, piety, and wonder and awe (also called fear of the Lord).
