Confirmation is a valued step in the faith formation of our youth. It is a time for 7th and 8th graders to confirm the faith that they were baptized into and grow in the knowledge and grace of their Savior. They see how God has worked in the past and still works today, equipping them to live in family that God has baptized them into.
Bible and Catechism provided. View the Confirmation Handbook for 2026/2027
