In the United States, the Sacrament of Confirmation is usually received in Junior High or High School but many adults receive Confirmation, too.

Our parish provides Confirmation preparation for the following ages... 

High School students (grades 9-12): On the main menu, click on Faith Formation, then Teen Confirmation or go to www.theholynameofjesus.org/high-school-grades-9-12 

Adults (19 and up):    
We offer two convenient opportunities for you to start classes: September or January. There are 12 sessions. Whatever your situation, we will work with you, so don't hesitate to contact us!

The top reason that keeps people from pursuing this sacrament as adults is a fear of not knowing enough. Please don't let that stop you! That's what we're here for!  We'd love to accompany you on the journey so that you can live in the fullness of our beautiful Catholic family!

Suggested donation for the program materials is $60.

Confirmation is one of the 3 Sacraments of Initiation in the Catholic Church... the other two are Baptism and Eucharist. All three create the foundation of every Christian life. 

We believe that the faithful are born anew by Baptism, strengthened by Confirmation, and nourished with the Eucharist.
 
This video from BustedHalo provides a good explanation of Confirmation and answers questions, such as:

• Why do I have to get confirmed if I’m already baptized?
• How do I choose a sponsor as I prepare for confirmation?
• Why do I have the option to choose a new name?
• What specific graces do I receive when I receive Confirmation?
