The Confirmation Rehearsal is Friday, May 6th at 7PM in the Church. All Confirmandi should be there with their Sponsors. If a Sponsor is not able to attend a parent must stand in for them so that the information can be relayed back to the Sponsor for the day of Confirmation.

Confirmation is Saturday, May 7th at 10am. All Confirmandi should be in the parish hall with their sponsors no later than 9:30am.

Please check the dress code for Confirmation.

For every Catholic, participation in Parish Life is both a right and a duty. The church is spiritually strong and vibrant to the extent that the Baptized members of the Parish community live their faith and share it with others. In Confirmation, the candidate is agreeing to enter into that Parish community, so it is proper that he or she prepare for that serious obligation in the Parish setting.

Confirmation brings to fullness that life in the Holy Spirit into which we were first initiated at Baptism. Therefore, a comprehensive preparation for Confirmation necessitates proper planning of curriculum, serious catechist-formation, Clergy participation, parental involvement, and the prayerful support of the total Parish community.

Program components include liturgy, study, service, and retreat. Beyond just catechesis, our Parish program includes significant service project experiences; a spiritual retreat for enhanced religious formation; education in liturgy fostering active participation on the part of the candidates in special liturgies and celebrations of the Eucharist; and a Confirmation interview to develop mutual relationships and understanding of the candidates’ readiness and willingness to be confirmed.

Confirmation is not a Sacrament that is chosen for us as in Baptism. It is a serious choice we must make on our own. It is a commitment we make to live in the fullness of faith. Such a commitment requires careful preparation and the support of the family and Parish community.
