Good evening Confirmation Family -

Apologies for the late evening message - just wanted to give you a quick reminder about tomorrow's session!

Looking forward to seeing all you students there! 

Please also give a listen to Bishop Robert Baron's Sunday Sermon for tomorrow, the Second Sunday of Advent (below).

He talks about Confirmation and the Seven Gifts of the Holy Spirit.

Tomorrow's readings can be found here if need them.

We will not be actually discussing this topic until Session 6 but it is a great primer for us!

God bless you all!!

Hello and Welcome Confirmation Family!

Parents, please plan to join us for the Parent Session on Sunday, October 12th, 2025 @ 9:15 in St. Mary's Parish Center.

Welcome (or welcome back) to the St. Mary's Confirmation Preparation website!

Please feel free to check out the resources links at the left of this page.

There are also calendars at the bottom of this page showing events at St. Mary's Church and Family Center.

Our plan is to "activate" a page after each session with summaries of the discussion items and links to the videos.

Please also review the session schedule below.  

We tried to avoid Sunday's during long school breaks as well as other major events.

Confirmation is nearly a month earlier next spring than is was this past spring so we have a pretty tight schedule.

We are open to discussion of questions / issues / concerns about schedule or anything else at the Parent Session.

Looking forward to seeing you all on the 12th!

God bless you all!!

Connie & Dennis
