Christine was one of 17 young-adult parishoners confirmed. After the service there was a reception in the parish hall where each confirmand received a certificate and a gift of a prayerbook from their pastor, Rev. Andrew Hamersley, and congratulated by the bishop.

Afterward Christine was joined by her parents, brother, godfather Uncle Doug, Aunt Lisa, cousin Becky, Aunt Cathy, cousins Christopher and Stephanie, grandparents Hugh and Dolores, and boyfriend Matt, for a celebratory luncheon at a Westfield restaurant.
