Confirmation Preparation

Dear Confirmation Candidate:

Your parish family welcomes you to Confirmation preparation!

We are excited to have you join us for your final year of Confirmation preparation.  Confirmation Journals should be completed by students that will be in 8th grade (2010/2011) that have received the Sacraments of Baptism and First Communion. If you are in need of either Sacrament Baptism or First Communion please contact the Religious Education Department as soon as possible.

Begin by printing out the Confirmation Sacrament Form and returning it the  to the Religious Education Department no later than August 30, 2010.

Next please take time to print out and look over your summer Confirmation Journal. The Confirmation Journal may seem overwhelming at first but I assure you it was created to be user-friendly.  You will have approximately two weeks to complete each section. 

Take time each week to sit down with your packet and do the assignments. Be sure to take time to reflect on each page. Writing out each word will help you take a closer look at the words you recite as a Catholic and spend time meditating on what they mean to you as a Confirmation candidate.

Please bring your completed Confirmation Journal to the Confirmation Meeting on September 13, 2010 (7:00pm-7:45 pm) 

During our September meeting I will go over the Confirmation details more thoroughly.  For now keep praying, going to church, spending time with other people of faith and living out the word of God. Please e-mail religiouseducation@lasalette-church.org with questions or concerns. God Bless you in this journey.
