Mr. and Mrs. S. have been married for 61 years.
Although Mrs. S. was not Catholic (Mr. S was) they went to Catholic church, as a family, throughout their marriage and their children were brought up in the Catholic church.
She never took part in the Sacrament of the Eucharist-Communion.
When she was in her 70's she decided to join. She reports being Baptized and going through First Holy Communion and Confirmation all on the same day.
It was a busy day and she reports to being a little embarrassed, "with everyone watching," since it was Easter Sunday.
She laughs when she says she suspects the Priest wanted to make sure she didn't change her mind.
