Confirmation

When you prepare for the Sacrament of Confirmation you learn to share, serve, you enjoy spiritual growth, have fun and you join the fellowship of those who are being confirmed with you and those who have been confirmed before you.

The Spirit of truth will be with you forever. John 14:15-17

• To be confirmed you must be 13 years of age
• You must have been Baptised, received the Sacrament of Reconciliation and received your First Holy Communion
• Young people making their Confirmation should be practicing catholics and be in a state of grace and be able to show that they have an understanding of what is expected from them as members in faith within the Catholic Church.

This Form will be available through the school.
