Through the sacrament of Confirmation, a person completes initiation into the adult church and reaches Christian maturity. After being anointed with the Holy Spirit, the individual is empowered to live and serve as an adult in the Church.
- Confirmation is celebrated after a two-year process of preparation. This includes both large and small group experiences, weekend retreats, and service projects.
- The young people choose a sponsor to assist them in their growth and maturity in their faith. They retain their Baptismal name to show the special relationship between the two sacraments.
- Young people normally begin this process in their High School years.
- For more information please refer to our Youth Ministry web site.
- Adults wishing to be Confirmed are invited to visit our Adult Spirituality/RCIA section for additional information.
