- About Us What is Confirmation?
The Confirmation program is a two-year process in which young Catholics prepare for the Sacrament of Confirmation in
which the teens prepare to be initiated into the church as adults. This is a time for them to make a decision about
their faith. This program is for teenagers in high school only. Registration takes place the summer before
classes begin and this may be done through the Parish Office or online. The SACRAMENT OF CONFIRMATION The sacraments create an intimate connection with God. Three sacraments
complete our initiation into the Catholic faith: Baptism, Eucharist and Confirmation. In Baptism, we are born the
intimate connection. The connection is nourished and sustained with the Eucharist. In Confirmation, our baptismal grace
and bond with the Church is strengthened. In the final sacrament of initiation into the Catholic faith, the oil of chrism
seals us with the Gifts of the Holy Spirit forever; an indelible mark that cannot be repeated. If you would like
more detailed information regarding the Sacrament of Confirmation, please contact the Director of Youth Ministry and
Confirmation. THE ST. LUKE CONFIRMATION PROCESS Mission

welcoming them into a Catholic community filled with adult and teen Marian role models, providing Catholic catechesis
based on the Catechism, Scripture, and personal witness, and fostering an understanding and desire to partake in
a Sacramental life with the intent of creating active apostles who will spread the Gospel to all people through their lifestyle
example, vibrantly alive faith, and knowledge of the Catholic Church’s teachings. -Confirmation Process |
