Confirmation


Confirmation is one of the three Sacraments of Initiation into the Church (along with Baptism and Eucharist). To prepare for this sacrament we will have a series of classes to grow deeper in our faith. 
 
Eligibility:
Anyone who is in 7th grade or older. In order to be confirmed you must be baptized and have received your First Communion. If you have not been baptized and/or received First Communion, let us know, and we can provide assistance to make that happen.
 
Classes
The class will meet on these Sundays, 11:15 am – 12:15 am.
