“The youth of today want to know what life is really about.” – Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI, YOUCAT
Hello! Confirmation is an important step in the lifelong spiritual journey of a Catholic. Here at St. Mary and St. Patrick parishes we offer a 2 year program using “Chosen” by Chris Stefanick. We meet following the school calendar respecting vacation breaks and the Program can include activities like community service, Sponsors Night with a game, a retreat, a semi-formal dinner, Advent and Lent events, and weekly challenges; all alongside dynamic class discussions. The Confirmation Program provides the opportunity for participants to grow in relationship with Jesus and to discover God’s plan for them through a deepening faith.
