Confirmation fills us with the Holy Spirit so that we may have a deeper relationship with God, as Creator, Redeemer, and Spirit. Through confirmation we are strengthened so that we may become disciples who bear witness to the Lord. Confirmation is also an initiation sacrament that welcomes us and deepens our belonging to the Church community. Thus we try to celebrate this sacrament within a Sunday Mass so that we may further welcome these members of the Body of Christ and offer them our support.

Adults - An opportunity is provided each year for adults who have been baptized as Catholic, but not confirmed to celebrate this sacrament. The program includes eight group sessions and a day of retreat

Youth - Ninth through twelfth graders who have not been confirmed whose families are registered members of the parish will receive a notice in July regarding confirmation. The Orientation Meeting for both parents and youth is held in September. This preparation program is formed around a Day of Welcome and Commitment, eight small group sessions and an overnight retreat. (Note: One year of religious education is required immediately prior to participating in this preparation.)
