Youth Confirmation

Septiembre 8, 2021
Reunión Mandatorio de Confirmación Año 2 (incluye cena)
6:00 - 8:30 pm – Centro Parroquial, Candidatos y Padres Requerido

• St. Mary's Sacramental Preparation for Youth Confirmation is a 2-year program. You must register for each year. ​
  The 2-year program will help to ensure the youth’s understanding and readiness for this amazing Sacrament, becoming a fully initiated member of the Catholic Church.      
• St. Mary's expects that parishioners (households) be registered and actively participating in parish life as part of the preparation for receiving the Sacraments. Going to MASS is the first REQUIREMENT.                                                                                
• In addition to monthly Sacramental Preparation Classes (1st Monday of each month - 6:30-8:00pm), students wishing to receive Confirmation must also be enrolled in Regular Faith Formation, either as a family (Sunday) or in age-level classes (Wednesday). 
  • Sophomores to Seniors in High School wishing to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation in that year should be active in Youth Group or Family Catechesis as well as be enrolled in and attend the Confirmation Year One sessions one year prior to starting the Confirmation  Year Two Sessions, which begin in September and end in May, with Confirmation taking place in mid to late May. Preparation for Confirmation Year One may begin during the Freshman year of High School.  For additional requirements and guidelines, please contact: Katie Beaubien Franchini (503.845.4279, youthministry@stmarymtangel.org)
