Who Can Receive Confirmation?
At St. Anthony's Parish, we welcome all Catholic baptized children, in grades 6 or higher, to enroll in the Confirmation preparation program and to learn and grow in their Catholic Faith as they prepare to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation.
What is the Parent's Role in a Child's Confirmation?
Journeying with your child as they prepare to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation is not a task to be taken lightly. As their parent, you must be committed to bringing your child to all of the preparation classes and to Sunday Mass, praying with them, and growing with them as they learn about their Catholic faith. Your co-operation in this process is essential for your child's spiritual growth as they prepare to receive this Sacrament!
