Confirmation- Youth
Confirmation preparation is a two-year process for high school age youth, normally for children during their 9th and 10th grade years. First-year candidates must be students of a Catholic high school or attend Life Teen sessions. All second-year candidates must satisfactorily complete a nine-month period of preparation, offered by the parish. Those who are preparing for Confirmation will be expected to attend retreats, mission experiences, days of prayer, to participate in service projects and in the life of the parish.
2023-2024 Registration coming soon….
Confirmation registrants should be sure to complete Life Teen registration as well. For more information, please contact the Office of Youth Ministry.
