SACRAMENT of CONFIRMATION
All youth in grades 8 and up can participate in the Sacrament of Confirmation. The program starts with Youth Alpha, reintroducing the youth to our Saviour Jesus Christ, which will run once a week from September-December 2021. In January, 2022, a 26-session program begins that will break for the summer and finish up in December. A service project and retreat will wind up the program in January-February 2023, with Confirmation in the spring.
