ALL SAINTS’ CHURCH.
CONFIRMATION SERVICE,
Last Friday confirmation services were held in All Saints’ Church when the Bishop of Wellington, Dr. T. H. Sprot't paid his annual visit. The Bishop in an interesting talk to the candidates, spoke of St. Paul’s experience in shipwreck, pointing out how the iship drifted until finally wrecked. The great danger in life to-day was the i>olicy of drift. Very few deliberately meant to ba wicked, or to live an evil life, but the great dangers of life were simply caused through drifting into evil habits. Confirmation with its blessings gave them the power of the Holy Spirit to live Christian lives.
The following were confirmed: — L. King, Edward Charles Morgan, Arthur Joseph Murphy, Wilfred Brian Murphy, John Clifton Symons, Charlotte Alice Carmont, F.thel Edith Harris, Maud Alice Fryer, Iris May Grinnvood, Greta Olive Coley, Grace Valerie Coley, May Smith, Meta Margaret Mason, Noeline Hilda Browne, and Claurine McKenzie.
The Bishop expressed his great pleasure in the musical portion of the service. .
