ConfirmationConfirmation awakens a young person’s experience of Baptism and points them toward sharing in Eucharist. It strengthens youth for their journey of discipleship and for active participation in the faith community. -
Welcome to the confirmation program!
-
We are excited to journey with you and your youth for 2 years as they prepare for this holy & beautiful sacrament of initiation.
- Typically, our Year 1 students are in 7th grade and our Year 2 students are in 8th grade.
- Year 1 and 2: Your youth will attend Wednesday evening classes from 7:00-8:15 pm, from September-April. Please see calendar below for more details.
It is a wonderful program rich in faith, fellowship, and fun!
