Two consecutive years of faith formation are required by the Archdiocese before reception of a sacrament. Teens will not automatically become candidates for Confirmation simply because they are in a certain grade. They need to fulfill the requirements of the previous grade before registering. Below is a general outline of the immediate sacrament preparation. Details are provided at the sacrament parent meetings.
* Parent Meeting
* Signed Contract
* Participating at Mass
* One Parent/Sponsor Meeting with Teen
* Confirmation Interviews
* Retreat
* Twenty Hours of Service
Our programs will be a hybrid of virtual and home-based activities. At home the Confirmation candidate will also be viewing monthly online videos by Dynamic Catholic and respond online. Candidates are also to complete 20 hours of service. Parent/candidate and sponsors meetings will be virtual. Retreat date and information to be determined. This will make it safer and less stressful on the families. We thank you for your patience as we have been working on making this a safe and exciting new year.
Jesus lived a life of service to others. He fed the hungry, brought healing to the sick and consoled those who were sad. He expects us, his followers, to continue his mission of service wherever we are needed. For this reason every Christian should be involved in regular service to others.
Confirmation candidates are asked to do at least 20 hours of service in preparation for Confirmation. A summary report of your service commitment will be required. This service shows that the candidate is ready to live up to the Christian responsibility of helping those who need us.
