Confirmation for High School youth is a two year cycle beginning in 9th grade. Two years of Parish School of Religion are required to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation. If your child is ready for the sacrament, he/she must have regular attendance at Sunday school and Mass. A baptismal certificate is required to receive Confirmation.
Contact the office if you are a Catholic who needs to be confirmed. If you are a baptized non-Catholic who is interested in being confirmed, please contact Deacon Mark Bowden about joining the RCIA program.
The Holy Eucharist is available during Mass to practicing Catholics who are in a state of grace. Others at Mass may come up at communion time and cross their arms over their chest to receive a blessing from the clergy or the extra-ordinary minister of communion.
The Sacrament of Reconciliation is offered each Thursday evening after Spanish Mass, during Adoration and on Saturday afternoons from 4:15 to 4:45.
