The sacrament of Confirmation will take place this school year for students eligible to receive them. In order for your child to participate, we ask parents to complete a 2-part process.

In order to register your child to receive the sacrament of Confirmation this SY2024-2025, you need to complete a 2-STEP process.

STEP 1: Please complete and submit this FORM. Once completed, you will receive a confirmation email for your submission.

STEP 2: The parish also requires a copy of the CHILD's Baptism Certificate in order to process the registration. Please submit a PHOTOCOPY of the Baptismal Certificate, as well as a translation if it is in another language, to the parish office.

At this time, you will also receive sacramental preparation booklets and a handout of all important dates for this sacramental year.

Please note that your registration will only be processed upon submission of a valid Baptismal Certificate. If you have misplaced the Baptism certificate, you need to contact the church of Baptism and request a new record of Baptism.

What is the Sacrament of Confirmation?

Confirmation is the sacrament by which Catholics receive a special outpouring of the Holy Spirit. Through Confirmation, the Holy Spirit gives them the increased ability to practice their Catholic faith in every aspect of their lives and to witness Christ in every situation.

The Effects of Confirmation are as follows:

An increased portion of the gifts of the Holy Spirit: wisdom, knowledge, right judgment, understanding, courage, piety, and fear of the Lord
A deepening and strengthening of the grace received at Baptism, which is considered the presence of God in the soul
A more intimate relationship with Jesus Christ
A closer bond with the Catholic Church
The ability to take a greater, more mature role in the Church's mission of living the Christian faith daily and witnessing to Christ everywhere
A special mark, or character, on the soul that can never be erased.
