Confirmation

The sacrament of Confirmation completes the grace of Baptism and infuses the seven-fold gifts of the Holy Spirit.  Confirmation is celebrated as a cluster-wide event, often with the Archbishop as the presider and homilist.  This sacrament marks the fullness of Christian initiation and calls those who receive it to go out into the world sharing the Good News of Christ's love.  Contact Martin Ahrndt at the Fr. Moran Center with questions about our program of Confirmation preparation for young students.  

Adults who wish to be confirmed in the Catholic Church do so through a process often called the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA).  Through reading of the Scriptures, regular participation in the Eucharist, and works of service, an adult grows in their faith in Jesus Christ.  The process is tailored to each person's own faith journey.  Contact Fr.
