The Sacrament of Confirmation

Whether they know it or not, teens today have hearts and minds made to dive into the Good News of the Gospel. Just as the God of the universe transformed human history two thousand years ago, He is fully present and seeks to transform the hearts of young people here and now. This life-changing 'divine encounter' is not a flashy event or a new philosophy—it is a person: Jesus Christ. Instead of encountering God on the crowded streets of Jerusalem, your teens will encounter Him in the sacraments, in the teachings of the Church, in their parish community, in experiences of service, and, in a special way, in you! 

The opportunity to prepare for the Sacrament of Confirmation is offered to those who have attained 14 years of age or more; to fulfill the requirement of our archdiocese that Confirmation take place after a person is at least 16 years old. 

It is assumed, that as a practicing Catholic, you are attending Mass on Sunday and receiving the Sacrament of Eucharist, weekly and Confession on a regular basis.
