Confirmation Preparation — Parish Family 14
“Remember, then, that you received a spiritual seal, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of knowledge and reverence, the spirit of holy fear. Keep safe what you received. God the Father sealed you, Christ the Lord strengthened you and sent the Spirit into your hearts as the pledge of what is to come.” — St. Ambrose
About our program: Parish Family 14 will collaborate this year on our confirmation program. All youth in grades 7 and up seeking confirmation in our three parishes are welcome to attend!
Classes will meet at St. John in the Egan Hall lunchroom (unless otherwise communicated).
Class dates for the 2025-26 session are:
November 2
November 16
November 23
November 30 (Advent wreath making)
December 7
December 14
January 4
January 11
January 31 – Retreat
February 1 – Rehearsal
Class time is 9:30am to 10:25 am (between the two St. John Sunday Masses). This time does conflict with the 9am Mass at St. Alphonsus. The Faith Formation team suggests that for these class dates, families explore the other Masses in our parish family: St. John 8:30 or 10:30, St. Benedict 11am, or either of the vigil Masses 5pm Saturday at St. John or St. Alphonsus.
A full-day Archdiocesan retreat will take place on Saturday January 31st, more details to come.
Our confirmation Mass with the Bishop or Archbishop will be Thursday, February 5, 2026, at 7pm.
