St. Jude Confirmation

On Saturday, Bishop Frank J. Caggiano confirmed young people from St. Jude Parish in Monroe. Among the parents in the Church was JoMarie Branco who was deeply moved by the ceremony and the Bishop’s homily.

Yesterday I experienced one of the most beautiful Masses in a long time. The words of our Bishop to youth of the parish were amazing. He encouraged them to be different and to be great—two things our young children need to hear.

“I have been a Roman Catholic my entire life. I believe we all are called to serve. Likewise the bishop has been called to make a difference and I truly believe his words were so powerful. I myself try to strive to make a difference with having three children I want them to grow up being good adults and never to forget their faith. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.”
