St. Pius X Catholic Church

Confirmation is the third sacrament of initiation into the Catholic Church. Confirmation strengthens the sacraments of Baptism and Eucharist. Students are invited to deepen their faith; to understand and be ready for the gift that God has planned for them in the sacrament of Confirmation.

 Our preparation program is a one year program with service, community building and education (catechesis) sessions. The program consists of both large and small group activities, with a group leader for each. Sessions meet once per month and culminate with the sacrament of Confirmation in the spring.
