Confirmation Requirements & Documents

1. Confirmation Class Sessions will be led regularly, in-person, at church, by our catechetical staff and our pastor.  These sessions will happen at the same time as the K-8 Family Faith Sessions.  Ideally, one parent will accompany each 7th/8th Grader to his/her Confirmation Sessions.   See the schedule of sessions for the year on our K-8 Schedule for the Year for 2022-2023, on this site.  Lessons will be available on this website.   These lessons cover the Baltimore Catechism, Volume One, as well as lessons from St. Pope John Paul II's Theology of the Body. 
2. Family/Home Mass/Bible Lessons  These lessons are  completed weekly by Confirmation students and their families.  (See our Class Schedule for the Year.)
