Requirements

Candidates, Sponsors and Families will be prepared spiritually, catechetically, theologically and pastorally to celebrate the Sacrament of Confirmation. The process utilizes a variety of settings, gatherings and events to deepen the Candidate’s faith commitment, clarify the understanding of full initiation, and evangelize. This means everything is important, particularly attendance. The schedule is spread out and does accommodate holidays, and school calendars to the best of our ability.

expectations:

  • A clear understanding that all requirements are mandatory and must be completed by the candidate and supported by family.
  • An authentic willingness to participate and strengthen your faith.

Requirements:

  • Code of Conduct signed by Teen and at least one parent/guardian 
  • Attend Catholic Mass with your family regularly, preferably the 6:00p.m. Teen Mass
  • Participation in a 6:00p.m. Mass job a minimum of 4 times (these do not count for service hours).

All Year One requirements must be met before you can start Year Two of Confirmation Preparation.   At any time should your teen, or a member of your family choose to break this covenant, or Code of Conduct you may be asked to leave the program.   If, after reviewing the requirements, you see any potential conflicts, it is your (the candidate, supported by parent,) responsibility to express the concerns to the youth minister immediately. Issues will be addressed on a case by case basis. Thank you for understanding.
