Welcome to Confirmation Preparation for 2026!

(For children baptized in another faith tradition, between the ages of 7-17,
         or adults 18+, please contact our OCIA Coordinator here: Becoming Catholic)

All teens (no younger than 10th grade) wishing to receive the sacrament as a spring 2026 candidate must be registered no later than October 1st, 2025. (Remember, you must also be registered concurrently in Life Teen Youth Ministry for the year.) Confirmation preparation consists of two specially designated "Confirmation Life Nights" - one in the fall and one in the winter on a Tuesday night - and one Power Day - a Sunday afternoon event in March 2026 with sponsors - in addition to attending youth ministry Life Nights on Sundays. You can find the current Youth Ministry schedule with dates the Life Teen page. Confirmation preparation also includes a retreat component, as well as a few conversations with our Parish Staff & Life Teen Core Team.

For the retreat component, teens will be able to choose between the Life Teen Fall Retreat (Nov. 15, 2025) or the Life Teen Spring Retreat (weekend of Mar. 14, 2026) Further details on the logistics and schedule of these retreats will be forthcoming.

The Confirmation preparation component of the year will begin in October 2026.
To sign up for Confirmation preparation, all teens will also be active in our Life Teen Youth Ministry. When filling out our registration, please select Confirmation prep, in addition to Life Teen, when asked. You can find our Life Teen Youth Ministry Registration here.

We are so glad that you've made the decision to be a part of our preparation process
         during this coming year!
