Confirmation Photos are finally here…
With the help of our very own Robbie the WAVES webmaster, I present to you the more photo-rific post of this years Confirmation Mass.
We asked all the confirmandi and their sponsors to check in at our DeSousa House Building. This would help us get everyone in their order prior to the beginning of the mass.
Getting over 186 anxious people to line up in alphabetical order can help create interesting conversations.
The Bishop of Hawaii, Most Reverend Clarence “Larry” Silva was almost running to the be at the front of the line. He was so thrilled to be at Holy Spirit Church, and wanted to greet each confirmandi as they entered the church.
These women had only a little time to rest and pose for this photo before getting back to work, helping facilitate the mass.
Guess who is excited for the person he is sponsoring?
What has two thumbs, is funny, and loves attention?… This GUY!!!
It was amazing that Bishop Larry was willing to really try and be accommodating to each confirmandi with a tiny conversation as they walked in the church.
I think this confirmandi is surprised because he had a crosier (Pastoral staff) that looks similar to Bishop Larry’s.
Fr. Mathew is giving Bishop Larry a few last minute details.
WAVES Leaders always try and keep a positive outlook!
Bishop Larry Silva wanted gave a moving homily.
The Youth Choir Director plays the piano beautifully. 
The Choir sounds great. I someone heard me singing off key.
Blessings all around….
Youth leaders help as ushers during our Youth Ministered masses.
We can use about 8 ushers per- mass. We could always use any additional help.
The Body of Christ…
The blood of Christ…
The young adults normally are the (EM) Eucharistic Ministers and (CM) Cup Ministers for the Youth Ministered mass.
Closing speech and a special thanks to Bishop Larry Silva by Fr. Matt.
Our young adult Cantors sing wonderfully. They help us all sing the songs of praise.
Say cheese!
Even our very own Auntie Silvia came out to support WAVES.
Only with the help of both Dn. Bill Drobick and his dedicated wife Joni, could the mass have gone as smoothly as it did. These two are so caring when it comes to the youth as well as our program here at Holy Spirit Church

PSALM 100:1 Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth!
2 Serve the Lord with gladness!
Come into his presence with singing!
3 Know that the Lord, he is God!
It is he who made us, and we are his; [1]
we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.
4 Enter his gates with thanksgiving,
and his courts with praise!
Give thanks to him; bless his name!
5 For the Lord is good;
his steadfast love endures forever,
and his faithfulness to all generations.
