Confirmation
Preparation for the Sacrament of Confirmation is a two-year process, usually during the student's Sophomore and Junior year of High School.
We follow all requirements and guidelines as set forth by the Diocese of San Bernardino regarding preparation and reception of Confirmation. This includes a yearly retreat as scheduled by the parish, at least 20 hours of service in the parish or communion each year of preparation (10th and 11th Grades), and a personal interview the second year. This interview is to assess the candidate's growth in the understanding of this commitment of the Faith as handed down to us by Christ through His church. Those students wishing to receive this Sacrament must have a basic knowledge of the Catholic Faith and be sincerely attempting to live our their faith commitment. Regular attendance at the high school religion class is mandatory.
For those attending Catholic high school, preparation time is limited to the second year of classes.
There will be an additional fee for the Confirmation retreat. Information will be forthcoming.
If your child has not continued their religious formation after their First Communion they will be required to enter Confirmation 1 (regardless of age) for formation.
If your child had continued religious education at another parish proof of attendance is required.
Confirmation 1, 2 & 3 classes will be held on Sundays from 2:00 PM to 3:30 PM.
The Youth Group meets on Sundays from 12:30 PM to 1:45 PM two times a month. Homeschooling students will need to attend the Youth Group at least once a month.
