Youth Confirmation preparation is a two-year process. Preparation for the sacrament normally begins in 7th grade and the student receives Confirmation at the end of the 8th grade Faith Formation classes.  As part of their preparation for the sacrament, Middle School students will participate in EPIC Large group events and High School students will participate in YDisciple. All students will be expected to complete works of charity, attend a Confirmation retreat and all scheduled events.  Parent involvement and attendance of parent classes are required.
