Confirmation

The Sacrament of Confirmation is one of the three Sacraments of Initiation of the Catholic Church. Preparation for this particular sacrament is offered to students in the eighth grade or older, who are attending St. Columban School or our Parish’s weekly Religious Education Program on Wednesday evenings. Candidates participate on a day long retreat, perform acts of service and attend large group meetings with their parents or sponsor.

There is also a separate preparation for adults who have been baptized Catholic, but were never Confirmed.

Confirmation takes place each year in the spring, usually during the Easter season. Contact Scott in the Parish Office for more information about the Sacrament of Confirmation.
