Confirmation
Confirmation is the celebration of the individual being sealed with the gift of the Holy Spirit as they make the choice to continue practicing their Catholic faith as an adult in the Catholic Church. The individual is anointed with the Holy Chrism at the Confirmation Mass that is usually celebrated by the diocesan bishop. Confirmation is usually celebrated for students in the ninth grade with preparation taking place in the parish religious education program. Catholic adults who have not received the sacrament of Confirmation may contact the parish office to be part of a preparation program to also receive the sacrament at the parish RCIA celebration. Confirmation is scheduled each spring.
At St. Francis Xavier, the Sacrament of Confirmation is typically received in 9th grade. Preparation for two years prior to reception is required, including all students of St. Francis Xavier School.
Classes begin in September and will take place from 6:30-7:30pm on Wednesday evenings in Building C of our campus. Register for classes HERE.
Please contact Amber Davis, Religious Education Coordinator, at the Parish Office at 785.238.2998 or [email protected] to schedule a Sacrament Prep parent meeting if you child is going into 8th or 9th grade and would like to be confirmed. Thank you!
