Class of 2020-2021
Our two final Confirmation meetings are right around the corner!
March 17, we will meet at St. Peter’s from 7:30-9:00 pm, enter door 3 and meet in the church. We will be checking in with each other and holding a mini-retreat. This is a good time to turn in printed and completed work, or bring baptismal certificates, if not baptized at one our four parishes.
The following week, March 24, we will meet at St. Paul’s starting at 7:30 pm in the Church for our Confirmation Liturgy Practice. Candidates should attend with their sponsor or a parent.
A reminder, our Confirmation Liturgy is scheduled for April 8 at 7:00 at St. Paul’s Church with Bishop Kettler.
More information will be coming out shortly regarding seating and tickets for the Confirmation Liturgy. Our space will be limited, and there is a system I’ll be employing to help us follow all of the guidelines for safe liturgy as defined by our Bishop.
