Confirmation is understood as a community celebration of the Holy Spirit. Parents and sponsors are an integral part of this journey in faith.
Our Parish Program is based on the RCIA model. The instructional part of the preparation program begins in junior high, followed by a year of formation. During this final year of preparation candidates experience what it means to be Catholic, as they go out and live their faith at monthy sessions. The sacrament is celebrated every other year in our parish.
