What Is Confirmation?

From that first Pentecost until now, it has always been the belief of the Church that the Holy Spirit directs and guides us collectively and individually. We have the Spirit of God living and working in our lives and in our Church.

We have each been given gifts according to the plan God has for us. Confirmation preparation is a chance to discover your God given gifts and learn how to use them to serve others out in the world.

CONFIRMATION
For young people preparing for Confirmation ~ it is an invitation to say, “YES” to the spirit. We hope to lead the young disciples into a closer relationship with God, while preparing them to understand and use their gifts in order to live out their apostolic callings.

Confirmation strengthens and starts a renewed zeal for discipleship.

Confirmation awakens the experience of Baptism and points them toward our sharing in the Word, the Sacraments and the goals of Catholic Social Justice.

Confirmation strengthens us for the journey of discipleship and for active participation in the faith community and sharing of the Good News.
