Preparation for Confirmation through the Religious Education Program is open to those in 8th through 12th grades. Candidates begin preparation in the fall and are confirmed the following October. This program is for Candidates who have been instructed in their faith through regular attendance in a Catholic School, the Wednesday Evening Religious Ed Classes or a formal home school program. The use of the Religion Curriculum Guide of the Archdiocese of Indianapolis in Religious education programs insures that the foundational doctrine has been presented to these students. While Confirmation preparation sessions review some of the basic Catholic teachings, they are not intended to re-teach the entire 1-8 religion curriculum. Those who have not been instructed in the faith will be confirmed through the RCIA or RCIC programs.
The date of Confirmation is determined by the Archdiocese. We are ususally informed of the date in late fall and we inform parents at that time.
All those wishing to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation in the Spring of 2018 should plan to attend the Confirmation Kickoff meeting. The meeting is for the candidate, sponsor and at least one parent.
