Sacrament of Confirmation Now In 8th Grade
Beginning two years ago, Confirmation in the Archdiocese has moved from 10th/11th Grade to 8th Grade. Our preparation program is now only 6-7 months long beginning in September, ending in February. Because of this shorter process, please keep in mind that we require previous faith formation leading up to Confirmation prep.
If your child has not been confirmed and is now in high school, please connect with me as we will hold separate classes for older teens and young adults. If your 8th grader has not received faith formation in recent years, we usually will place them with 7th graders so they can get a "foundation" before Confirmation preparation.
