The Sacrament of Confirmation is the culmination of years of preparation, beginning with Baptism.  This class is in addition to the High School Religious Education class, and is usually attended by 10th graders of our parish.  

It is a dioscean requirement that any student requesting the Sacrament of Confirmation attends 1 year of high school religious education before attending the Confirmation Sacramental preparation course.  If your child has attended at least 1 year of high school religious education classes and seeks the Sacrament of Confirmation, they will take both the "Grade 9-10 RE" class (held once/month on Sunday 7-8:30 p.m.), and the Confirmation Class, which will be held on alternate Sundays from Religous Ed on Sundays from 9-10:30 a.m.  Registration for Confirmation will begin on September 17th at the Religious Ed Information Session at 9:30 and 11:30 a.m. (before and after the 10:30 a.m. Mass).

Again, this class is for those High School students who have completed at least one year of High School religion classes, and who wish to be Confirmed.  Confirmation candidates meet for 6 monthly preparation classes on Sunday mornings from December through May (in addition to High School Religious Ed. classes) plus a retreat in February.  The ceremony is held at the end of May/early June at St. Paul's Cathedral in Worcester with the Bishop.
