Confirmation
The Confirmation process is a two year journey that candidates begin
in the 9th Grade.
Level I
Since the Sacrament of Confirmation is so closely connected and built upon their
baptism, the objective of Level I will be to establish the candidate’s
understanding of their baptismal call. Level I will seek to create an experience
and environment of conversion and rededication to our baptismal promises.
Through catechesis, faith sharing, retreat, and social interaction, the
candidates will learn daily how to “Put on Christ.” (Rom 13:14; Eph 4:24; Col
3:12).
Level II
Within Level II candidates will be challenged to develop a “more lively
familiarity with the Holy Spirit – his actions, his gifts, and his bidding” (CCC
1309). The objective of Level II is to impart to the candidates the tools to
fully understand the effect of the sacrament of Confirmation, which is the full
outpouring of the Holy Spirit, and seek to implant the notion that faith
formation is ongoing. Through catechesis, faith sharing, retreat, and social
interaction, candidates will be formed into learning the skills of arousing
their own faith by “assuming the apostolic responsibilities of Christian life
and developing a sense of belonging to the Church of Jesus Christ, as well as
the parish community” (Cf. CCC 1309). Level II will be a preparation process for
being “Empowered by the Spirit.”
