(Port Chester, NY – May 21) – On Thursday, May 15, one hundred and three young people at St. John Bosco Parish received the sacrament of Confirmation at the hands of the Most Reverend Bishop Manuel Cruz, DD.

The bishop celebrated two Masses. He addressed the confirmation youths and their sponsors and families and advised them always to seek the guidance of the Holy Spirit in their lives and to seek encounters with Jesus.

St. John Bosco Parish rejoices in the newly confirmed and prays its young people use the gifts of the Holy Spirit they received to bring Jesus to others!
