Confirmation
An Affirmation of Faith
This was Benjamin, aged four months, at his baptism. This is Benjamin today, aged 13. He will soon receive his confirmation. What does that mean? Benjamin has been baptised as a Protestant. The word “confirmation” originates from the Latin word “confirmare” and means “to confirm”. By your confirmation, your Christian belief in God is confirmed. As the middle one of three siblings, Benjamin is the centre of his family’s attention today. It is his feast, which he chose to have of his own free will. Today confirmation is not a necessity but it is still a big step in the process of growing up.

Air Traffic
Being able to fly has been a dream of humanity from time immemorial. But it does not even date back a century that people actually started being able to travel through the air. Since the 1960s, the number of flight passengers has been constantly increasing. Thus, the airspace is no longer dominated by birds but by man-made flying objects.
