Confirmation

Confirmation, together with Baptism and Eucharist, form the Sacraments of Initiation that are all intimately connected.

In the Sacrament of Confirmation, the baptized person is “sealed with the gift of the Holy Spirit” and is strengthened for service to the Body of Christ. –The USCCB
If you are an adult who was baptized in another Christian tradition and would like to become Catholic, or if you were baptized Catholic but for whatever reason did not yet receive confirmation, please see our page on the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults.

For Teens 9th grade and older

Confirmation preparation in our diocese is a two-year process.
Registration and orientation for Confirmation parents/guardians and teens will be held on Sunday, September 21 from 3:30 to 4:45 pm in the social hall.
Attendance at Sunday Mass is an integral part of our Catholic faith and we expect those preparing for the Sacrament of Confirmation to fulfill their weekly Sunday obligation. Life nights (Sunday Lifeteen meetings) are a part of Confirmation preparation so we encourage teens to attend the 5pm Sunday Mass just prior to the meeting. For additional information please email us at stateens@stanpr.org
