Confirmation
The Sacrament of Confirmation is one of the three sacraments of initiation into the Catholic Church. The other two are Baptism and Holy Communion. This sacrament is called Confirmation because the faith given in Baptism is now confirmed, strengthened, and empowered. During Baptism, your parents and godparents made promises to renounce Satan and to believe in God and the Church on your behalf. At Confirmation, you are now speaking for yourself, renewing those same promises, and committing yourself to mission of Christ to save others from sin calling them to sanctity.
"When Paul had laid his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came upon them; and they spoke in tongues and began to prophesy." ( Acts 19:6)

How to Receive

If you are an adult who has received you baptism and First Holy communion, please contact our office in order to meet with our clergy. The priest or deacon will help you complete your sacraments.
