Confirmation Preparation
St. Mary's Catholic Church Confirmation Preparation
February 5th, 2025
Greeting!
Thanks again to all of you that were able to join us Sunday (we missed you, Justin!)
Parents & students, please review Session 3 together.
We again encourage you to review the all of the videos for this session as you get the time.
Please especially take the time to watch The Bible in 10 Minutes from Fr. Mike Schmitz. Hopefully it will inspire you!
The Spiritual Works of Mercy assignment this week is to find an article or articles of clothing to bringing to our session next Sunday so that the clothing can be given directly to the homeless.
The family prayer for this week is the Prayer Before Reading the Bible.
For our February 23rd session, please bring at least some names you are considering for both Confirmation Sponsor and Saint Name.
Standing housekeeping items:
The celebration of The Sacrament of Confirmation is Friday, May 9th, at 7PM @ All Saints Catholic Church in Lewiston.
The Confirmation Retreat is planned for Sunday, May 4th at St. Augustine's Catholic Church.
The letters to the Bishop are due in Boise by April 4th so we will need to send them by March 30th. We offered to the students that we could hold a work session for the letters if that would help.
Please continue to pray about and discuss Saint Names and Sponsors for Confirmation.
God bless you all!!
Connie & Dennis
