CONFIRMATION PREPARATION
YEAR 9
Initiation into the Christian community for Catholics begins when parents present their children for Baptism. In the sacrament of Holy Eucharist, these children are brought more deeply into Christ’s church. Confirmation is the sacrament in which Catholics complete their initiation. After Confirmation a person is completely and fully a member of the church.
In year 9, the program focuses on involvement within the parish, challenging young people to understand that now is the time to take more of a leadership role in the community. We have a number of guest speakers who speak to the young people on topics such as The Gifts of the Spirit, Seeking God in Prayer, The Call of Jesus to Service, The Confirmation Liturgy, and Our mission after Confirmation.The young people are expected to do volunteer work within the parish community.
