Confirmation 2023-2024
The Sacrament of Confirmation seals and brings to fruition the graces that were given at Baptism. St. Thomas More provides for this special time in the life of the Catholic when it is received sophomore year of high school at the earliest. Through Mass, preparation, and retreat, those seeking Confirmation can come to see the importance of what it is they are undertaking.

The Confirmation Preparation Process

Confirmation at St. Thomas More requires a prerequisite of one year for systematic catechesis (Year 1; to register click here) which is open to all 9-12 grade teens. Candidates who have completed one year of Youth Ministry or who are receiving Catholic high school religious education can enroll in Confirmation (Year 2).

Sessions will be held once a month on a Saturday beginning with the 9 AM Mass of the day and ending by at noon.

Note that these sessions along with the Confirmation retreat are mandatory for the reception of the sacrament.

ELIGIBILITY

- Has received First Reconciliation and First Holy Communion, or is in the formation process to receive those sacraments.
- Participates in the sacramental life of the Church by attending weekly Mass and exhibits an active faith life and understanding of the Church.
If you are a High School student and you have not received Baptism and/or First Communion please come register, we have a class just for you.
