Ten young people from four churches in Trent-Durham are confirmed at Christ Church, Oshawa on May 26, with Bishop Riscylla Shaw presiding. The confirmands came from All Saints, Whitby, Christ Church, Oshawa, St. George, Pickering Village (Ajax) and St. Saviour, Orono. In addition to the confirmations, Peter Misiaszek, the diocese’s director of Stewardship Development, was received into the Anglican Communion. ‘It has been an honour to accompany these thoughtful, creative and curious youth on their journey to confirmation,’ wrote the clergy of the participating parishes. ‘They are both gifted and gifts to the Church. We are filled with hope and excitement to see God at work in their lives.’
