Teen Confirmation

                 

 

Teen Confirmation is designed for you who meet all of the following:
  •         Were baptized Catholic at some point between birth and age seven
  •         Are now in 10th or 11th grade
  •         Have received your First Communion
  •         Are enrolled in CCE this year and were last year as well
  •         Who have not been confirmed but want to be 
 
If you want to complete your baptism and become a full member of the Catholic Church, contact Jo Jefferies, 409 762 9646or reled@holyfamilygb.org
 
Education:
 
Before taking this step toward greater union with the Catholic Church, before receiving this sacrament, we ask that you have a functional literacy of the Church community.  We provide you with the basic tenets of the faith through a series of weekly classes. This is done in conjunction with our CCE program. A minimum of two years of CCE is required for teen confirmation.
 
Receiving Confirmation:
 
The sacrament of confirmation is conferred at special Masses by a bishop. In this archdiocese, this would be Cardinal DiNardo, Archbishop Fiorenza, Bishop Joe Vasquez, or Bishop Vincent Rizzotto. 
 
Frequently Asked Questions:
 
Q. Do I need to provide any documentation to be confirmed?
 
A. We need proof of your birth, name, baptism, etc. This typically takes the form of a copy of your baptismal certificate from the church in which you were baptized.
