Mrs. Jameil Grant, Lauren MacMullen, Subdeacon Crosby Sparks, Fr. Hanna Karam, Luke Richards, Collin MacMullen, Mr. Peter Bonczewski and Frankie Nockley

On February 20, 2011, the Holy Mystery of Chrismation [Confirmation] was celebrated at St. Anthony and St. George Church, Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. Miss Lauren MacMullen and Master Collin MacMullan were sealed by the Holy Spirit, with the Holy Oil of Myron [Chrism] during the Liturgy by Father Hanna Karam. The children were asked to learn about a Maronite Saint who they wished to emulate as they continue to follow their Maronite faith. Lauren chose St. Aqulina and Collin chose St. Lucian as their Chrismation names. Mrs. Jameil Grant, Lauren's Grandmother, was her sponsor. Mr. Peter Bonczewski, Maronite Religious Education teacher, was Collin's sponsor. Following the Liturgy, a reception was held in the Church Hall.
