Confirmation for 9-12th grade Students

- SACRAMENTS

Confirmation Program Description and Online Registration

At SEAS, children have typically been prepared and received the sacrament of Confirmation in 9th grade. However, it has been decided that preparation and reception of Confirmation can now happen in 9th, 10th, 11th, or 12th grade. Reception of the sacrament of Confirmation should only be pursued if it is truly desired by the recipient. We want the youth in our parish to understand that this sacrament is available to them when they are ready to receive it and truly desire it.

Due to the current circumstances, adjustments have been made to the Confirmation program. Hopefully, in future years, we will be able to return to our normal program. Please read the information for this year’s program carefully.

Preparation for the sacrament of Confirmation will take place each Sunday at the parish. In order to follow guidelines, there will be three separate sessions each lasting one hour. These sessions will go from 1:30 p.m. – 2:30 p.m., 3:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m., and 4:30 p.m. – 5:30 p.m. Once the registration deadline has passed, all students (Candidates) will be sorted into one of the three sessions and you will be notified of which one your Candidate is to attend.

Each session will have one small group for boys and one for girls. The entirety of the session will be spent in these small groups. The small groups will be led by adult catechists including myself. The purpose of the content in these small groups will be to prepare the Candidates for the sacrament, go deeper in relationship with Christ, and gain an understanding of what it means to be a Disciple. This will be achieved in teachings/testimonies, prayer, and small group discussion.

In order to follow current guidelines, all those in attendance will be required to wear a mask. While in small group, participants will be seated six feet apart. After each session, all surfaces will be sanitized. In addition to the Bible, notebook, and folder Candidates will be given on the first day, they are also asked to bring their own writing utensil. The fee for this adjusted program is $60. and registration is due by September 14.

Please register below. Once registered, you will receive an email from Mariah containing more information for this year’s program. I am looking forward to this year of Confirmation preparation and walking with your children on this path of faith. Parent and student orientation is Sunday, September 27!
