Confirmation

Confirmation is a sacrament where the Spirit of God is called upon to strengthen and guide the person being confirmed.  It helps us recognize that we need the support of God to live a good life, a life of integrity.  The sacrament serves as a remembrance that wherever we are, we can always call on the Spirit to support us. On the day of Confirmation, those to be confirmed receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 

Children who were baptized as infants will be confirmed during Grade Seven.  

Preparation for confirmation is received through the Grade Seven school curriculum. 

Children in pubic and private schools who would like to celebrate the sacrament of Confirmation, will receive instruction material from the diocese through the Catechetical Program. Please register your child immediately (if they are in Grade Seven and in public or private school) through the parish office: 905.662.8593
