It must be explained to the faithful that the reception of the sacrament of Confirmation is necessary for the completion of baptismal grace. Catechism of the Catholic Church 1285
The documents at the left are for the convenience of those young people who wish to be confirmed here at St. Mary Church. Youth must be enrolled in the Confirmation program to be eligible to receive the sacrament. Confirmation is a 2 year preparation program beginning in 7th grade.
