Confirmation Prep Program

Contrary to popular belief, the Sacrament of Confirmation is not a ‘graduation from religious education school.” Confirmation is not the end, but really a beginning of your fully initiated life as a Catholic. In the Sacrament of Confirmation, the candidate (person becoming confirmed) is sealed with the gifts of the Holy Spirit they were given at Baptism. The Holy Spirit is kind of the ‘Star’ of the whole Confirmation process. The Holy Spirit then ignites in the candidate his or her mission as a fully initiated Catholic.

Year 1 Confirmation Prep​
​Welcome 9th graders! Read on for a little bit about our program...

Year 1 begins with an info night for all teens and their parents on Sept 12th. Then starting on Sept 19th, we start a 12 week session called Alpha Youth for our teens. Every Wednesday for those 12 weeks is mandatory and it begins with a delicious meal, followed by a video and fantastic conversations in your small groups.

This program is truly wonderful and I feel it is exactly what our teens are looking for! During that Fall Semester (Sept-Dec) there will be no other youth group on Wednesdays)

Starting in January, Youth group will happen twice a week: One night on What the Church Teaches About... and the other night a social/Fun night. Year 1 Confirmation Teens are expected to attend the night about Catholic Teaching each month Jan-April as a part of their Confirmation formation.

During Year 2, each teen will have a couple of options. They could:
1. Help facilitate small groups during Alpha for the new year 1 class. (12 weeks)

2. Join a Discipleship Group and meet with their group 6 times for 2 hours anytime from Sept-Dec.

In addition to one of the options above, the year 2 class will come together once to go on an all retreat together which will include a service project, a ministry fair, choosing their Saint name, adoration and confession.

Calendars comings soon!
