Confirmation

Confirmation is the sacrament by which those born anew in baptism receive the seal of the Holy Spirit, the Gift of the Father. Along with Baptism and the Eucharist, Confirmation is a sacrament of initiation, in this case, initiation into the life of adult Christian witness. The deepened presence of the Spirit, who comes to us in this sacrament, is meant to sustain us in a lifetime of witness to Christ and service to others.

Confirmation is usually received by our eighth grade students in the Religious Education Program.
​
Adults seeking Confirmation may inquire with the Director of Faith Formation/ RCIA.
