Confirmation is an importand milestone along the journey in one's Catholic faith life. For teens, it respresents an opportunity to look at our Cathlic faith in a more adult way - exploring, discerning and deciding to make a willful and intentional commitment to learn and live the Catholic faith, beliefs, morals, and practices. For parents, Confirmation represents an important accomplishment in the parenting of a Catholic son or daughter, and an opportunity to talk about our faith with them in a more concrete way.
Confirmation completes Baptism. It is as if the Bishop seals and approves the Baptism celebrated earlier in life. It represents a personal commitment to grow in the knowledge, love, and practice o our faith.
All youth, 8th grade and older, are invited to begin this two year preparation by registring with the Family Faith Formation Program. The Confirmation series used is Chosen: Your Journey to Confirmation.
The Confirmation date is determined by Bishop Edward Lohse in the fall of your Confirmation year.
