Sacraments 101: Confirmation - Why we're confirmed

Confirmation Names (Saint)
-
ADULTS & High School Students (10th - 12th grade)
Confirmation is the third Sacrament of Initiation (following Baptism and Eucharist). It is called Confirmation, because the faith given in Baptism
is now confirmed and made strong...and means accepting
responsibility for your faith and destiny. -
ADULTS desiring the Sacrament of Confirmation should contact their Parish office, as each Parish Pastor may have similar or different requirements for Confirmation of adults and/or marriage preparation.
Requirements for Confirmation:
Be Baptized Catholic
Provide a copy of Baptismal Certificate (OLV requires a copy of baptismal certificate if the individual was not baptized at one of earlier churches that make up our current OLV Parish). If baptized here, then we need the date of baptism and birthday of the individual, as well as the names of both parents to research our records.
Have Received First Communion
Living as a single person (if single…cannot be cohabitating from the time instruction begins through Confirmation...and marriage within the church, if
preparing for marriage). If married in another religion or civilly, there are other
items to be addressed.
