Confirmation

The Confirmation class at OLPH prepares high school age children to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation. It is a 2-year program open to all ninth graders and above. Class is held once a month, from October through April. Each 75 minute class is held in the evening typically on the third Thursday of each month in the Church Hall.

Each class explores different Catholic Church topics and teachings. Examples include Prayer, the Ten Commandments, the Beatitudes, Catholic Social Teachings, the Patron Saints, You and God, Easter, Advent, Pentecost & Confirmation, and The Mass. Classes include discussions on the above topics and video presentations to complement the discussions. The program also includes Community services activities, attending Retreat, and participation in the Mass as lectors or offertory participants. The program is flexible in that if a class member cannot attend in a particular month or if increment weather occurs, the lesson plans are sent home to be completed prior to the next class. Registration begins in July and closes September 30th.
