Confirmation is a sacrament of mature Christian commitment and a deepening of baptismal gifts. Like Baptism and Eucharist, it is a Sacrament of Initiation for Catholics/evangelics and a Sacrament of faith in God's fidelity to us. Yesterday, Janine, the 14 year old daughter of Dirk had her confirmation in an Evangelical church in Heilbronn. Her family on both sides were all present to witness Janine's received grace for fullness of faith and life. We did drive to Heilbronn last saturday to be with Mutti. We stayed in the same hotel with a nice view of the village.
