Group Details

Confirmation registration forms were mailed to families of ninth graders. The boys who have registered for Confirmation sessions will meet this Sunday, October 18th from 7:00-9:00 pm in the Youth Ministry Rooms of the Church. The girls will meet on Sunday, November 1st. It has been necessary to split the group to enable us to practice social distancing at the sessions. A Parent Meeting will be held during the last 20 minutes of the session in the Church on October 18th. Teens who are in the 9th grade and older may still register before the November sessions. Please call the Parish Office or email Laura (lauraruque@stbedementor.org) to register.

Confirmation

Preparation for Confirmation begins in the 8th Grade during PSR sessions held on Tuesday evenings from September to May from 7:45-9:00 pm. Preparation continues for ninth graders with monthly meetings held on Sunday evenings in the Youth Ministry Room of the Church; a retreat day is also a part of the program. Prospective candidates must be baptized and have received their First Communion. Letters of invitation will be sent in the summer to both eighth and ninth graders. Confirmation is usually celebrated in the spring. The aim of the Confirmation Program is to lead the young people to a deeper relationship with Christ in the Holy Spirit and a stronger experience of parish community.

The Confirmation Team assists in the formation of our teen candidates for this sacrament. Contact Laura Ruque. 257-5544 or lauraruque@stbedementor.org.
