Confirmation

The largest component of the High School Ministry is our Confirmation Preparation.

Sacrament of Confirmation

Sacrament of Confirmation

It is a walk with our freshmen and sophomore high school teenagers toward the sacrament of Confirmation. They meet in small groups in the homes of adult facilitators on average once a month and participate in large groups at church once a month. Throughout the year they will gather for additional formation experiences as a community and will attend a retreat during each year. At the completion of the two years preparation, they will be confirmed by the bishop,which usually takes place in the January of the second year of preparation.

Throughout the year, there are also woven service opportunities and social events. They participate in service as a ministry and are invited to develop their leadership skills which will be used in the parish and community.
