Sacrament of Confirmation

Youth

The Sacrament of Confirmation is ordinarily celebrated when students are juniors in high school. Preparation includes high school religious education classes, community service, and a Confirmation retreat. Confirmation is a sacrament of initiation and, as such, is usually celebrated during the Easter Season. The Confirmation preparation for youth is offered as part of Christian Formation through our Youth Ministry program.

Adults

For a variety of reasons, many baptized adults (who may or may not have made their First Reconciliation and First Communion) have never been confirmed. Convenient individual and small group Confirmation preparation sessions are offered year-round at the parish. The Confirmation preparation for adults is offered as part of Christian Formation through our Adult Formation program.

For unbaptized adults, Confirmation is part of the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA), which is part of Christian Formation and offered through our Adult Formation program.
