Our Confirmation Mass will be celebrated on October 29, 2024. We are only hosting one Mass for the sacrament. 

​

Registration is open for rising juniors (and rising seniors who have not received the Sacrament of Confirmation).

​

The online form and fee are due by June 30th. A copy of the candidate's baptism certificate (if they were not baptized at St. Aloysius) is due by July 15th. The completed, signed sponsor form is due by July 31st.

​

At St. Aloysius we confirm teens in the fall of their junior year. We also welcome seniors who aren't confirmed. We open registration in the spring for current sophomores and juniors, and our program runs from August to November.

​

We strive to remind our candidates that our faith is constantly growing and that no one is a perfect Catholic. Doubts, questions, and stumbling blocks are normal and natural for all of us at any point in our life. What is important is a love for God and a desire to move forward in our faith.

​

​

Why should I be confirmed?

 

 

You should consider being confirmed because doing so brings you closer to God and His love for you. 

 

It also gives you the opportunity to approach God more intimately with your struggles and anxieties, including those regarding your faith! The sacraments are our visible signs of God's love for us, and confirmation delivers tremendous graces into your life through the Holy Spirit. Lastly, it gives you a more firm foundation in your relationship with the Catholic Church.

 

Confirmation may also be a way for you to honor your family and their decision to have you baptized in the Catholic Church. Furthermore, you can choose a sibling, uncle, aunt, godparent, grandparent, teacher, or another significant friend to serve as your confirmation sponsor.

 

How can parents get involved and help?

 

St. Aloysius needs parents to help us during our journey to confirmation! The biggest need is for parents (and other interested adults) to serve as confirmation small group leaders. All of our confirmation candidates meet in small groups of six to eight teens, which gives them the perfect venue to learn and express their own thoughts regarding the Catholic faith and confirmation.

 

We have received wonderful feedback; every year the candidates are clamoring for more time with their small group at the end of the process! Please email MacDougall Womack if you are interested in helping!
