Confirmation is a one-year process for high school teens (grades 9-12). The teens and their parents may choose any year of high school to participate (but we recommend doing it sooner rather than later). All of the formal catechetical preparation is combined with an offsite summertime retreat experience. The retreat entails large group talks, small group discussions, fun and powerful music, drama, skits, service, adoration, and personal faith sharing. It is a fun, high-energy, 100% Catholic, powerful, life-changing experience for the youth! Reception of the sacrament will occur after the last day of the summer retreat.
Requirements to Participate
Teen must be an enrolled high school student (grades 9-12).
Registered parishioner: Families must be registered parishioners of OLMC by December 2024, at least six months prior to the retreat.
Attend both parent meetings: One parent must attend two meetings: one in the fall and one in the spring.
