And behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you; but stay in the city until you are closed with power from on high.
Luke 24:49
In Confirmation, Christians receive a special outpouring of the Holy Spirit and deepening of baptismal graces needed to grow as mature disciples of Christ in the life of the Church.
Youth Confirmation
Preparation for the sacrament occurs in high school (can begin freshman year) and is a part of the L.I.G.H.T. program. The sacrament is administered in the fall of each year for students who have been prepared and are ready. Information on the sacrament can be obtained through the L.I.G.H.T. program or by contacting the youth ministry office.
Adult Confirmation
If you are looking for Adult Confirmation, please see more information on the Order of Christian Initiation for Adults (OCIA).
