Sealed with the Gift of the Holy Spirit
Confirmation deepens the grace of Baptism and strengthens your child with the gifts of the Holy Spirit — wisdom, understanding, right judgment, courage, knowledge, reverence, and wonder and awe. It is a powerful moment of encounter with Christ and the Church, equipping young disciples to live their faith with confidence and joy.
Ready to begin? We are happy to share that our Confirmation program has transitioned into a joint program with St. Bernadette Parish called IGNITE. This new program will integrate both 7th- and 8th-grade students. Please watch the message below from our Pastor Father Mark and St. Bernadette Administrator Father Joe.
For adults or older children seeking to celebrate the Sacrament of Confirmation, please visit our OCIA program page to learn more about preparing for full initiation into the Catholic Church.
Our next Confirmation Liturgy will be celebrated on Wednesday,
April 21, 2027.
Registration is now open for students interested in participating in the Confirmation program. Email St. Bernadette Associate for Parish Family Ministries Maria Nicaise at mnicaise@stbern.net with any questions
For by the Sacrament of Confirmation, the baptized are more perfectly bound to the Church and are enriched with a special strength of the Holy Spirit. Hence they are, as true witnesses of Christ, more strictly obliged to spread and defend the faith by word and deed. — CCC 1285
