On Sunday, May 31, five young people from the parish were confirmed at a lovely service in Chatham that saw a total of 14 from the deanery confirmed in all. They are Andrew Marvell (in blue shirt and tie), Charles Cofell (in brown stripes) and Sierenna Cofell (in black and white on the far right) of Church of the Advent, Ridgetown, and Mackenzie Sewell (in black, back row) and Hunter Sewell (in white, middle row) of St Matthew's, Florence. Bishop Terry (in red and gold...) and Fr John (in the Guatemalan stole) are pictured with the confirmandi. Carloads from the parish attended in support.

Mackenzie and Hunter were thrilled with all the St. Matthew's support at the service. They couldn't believe so many people had come to be with them. They truly felt part of the church family.

St Matthew's loved being there to see two of our favourite Sunday School helpers join the church!
