“The diverse group of people who will participate in our All Saint’s Day confirmation service includes numerous teens as well as adults from various backgrounds who wish to affirm their commitment to Jesus Christ. It’s encouraging to be surrounded by so many faithful believers who are excited about CANA ’s scriptural foundation and focus on evangelism,” said CANA Suffragan Bishop Roger Ames.
