CONFIRMATION (9TH & 10TH GRADE)

Last Updated on September 6, 2024 by Editor

Our Confirmation program is a two-year program. Students typically begin in ninth grade. We collaborate with other area parishes for classes. A candidate for the Sacrament of Confirmation has many requirements from the parish that must occur before he/she is to be confirmed:

  • Enrollment Mass.
  • Brief paragraph on given topic.
  • Written assignments.  
  • Letter to the bishop.
  • Service opportunities (Faith in Action) and write-up.
  • Mandatory retreat.
  • Penance service.

All of the Confirmation requirements will be given in packets after our classes have begun. Full details of the requirements will be explained at a time to be set.
