Sacrament of Confirmation

Throughout the Confirmation process we will focus on equipping candidates with both knowledge of the Catholic faith and spiritual experiences that lead candidates to a deeper relationship with Christ, active participation in the Church, and a realization that Confirmation is necessary and relevant in a world that says otherwise. We also hope to foster stronger unity among Confirmation candidates, as we believe that active participation in a vibrant faith community is a vital element in living out our Catholic faith as disciples of Christ.

As we prepare to embark on this faith journey, please ensure that your family is attending Mass every Sunday and all Holy Days of Obligation. The Eucharistic Liturgy is what feeds all other components of the Confirmation process.

The Confirmation program components will also include:

• Catechesis and Sacramental preparation
• Service and outreach projects (both within and outside of our parish)
• Occasions for dialogue, fellowship, and reflection among candidates, parents, and sponsors
• Various spiritual experiences, prayer services, retreats, and celebration of Sacraments
• Continued education on Catholic doctrine and practices, and community-building activities
• Participation as a Liturgical Minister during Masses

We ask that you prayerfully consider joining us on this journey, and we look forward to working
with all of you. Feel free to contact us if you have any questions or would like to discuss your decision.
