When we are confirmed, we receive the Holy Spirit, through the anointing with oil and the laying on of hands by the bishop or a priest appointed by him. Those already baptized are strengthened by the Holy Spirit in order that they may steadfastly profess the faith and faithfully live up to their profession.
Children
Children who were baptized as infants prepare for this sacrament in third grade in addition to First Eucharist. Confirmation preparation for children happens either through Ss. Peter & Paul School or Parish School of Religion (PSR). In addition to lessons during their religion class times, candidates for Confirmation may also be invited to participate in additional formation sessions to further emphasize the value of the sacraments.

Adults
The Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults (RCIA) is a process through which interested adults become members of the Catholic Church. If you are un-baptized or baptized in another faith and would like to learn more about the teachings of the Catholic Church, please call the Parish Office to find out more about the RCIA process.
