Sacrament of Confirmation

Confirmation for our youth is a part of the Youth Ministry program. For information on confirmation meeting dates, visit the
Youth Ministry website.

Catholic adults who are active in practicing their faith but have never received the Sacrament of Confirmation are encouraged to do so. The formation process focuses on those who are ready, through maturity and a change of heart, to respond more deeply to God’s invitation of love and mercy.

Fall 2023 Session

The 9-week preparation classes begin in October, and the Sacrament of Confirmation will occur in early January at a place and time determined by the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston.

Register

Requirements are:

• Is at least 20 years old.
• Has celebrated the Sacraments of Baptism, Eucharist and Reconciliation.
• Has not rejected the Catholic faith by joining another Christian denomination or a non-Christian faith.
• If married, is in a marriage recognized by the Church. For example, repeated vows in the presence of a Catholic priest or deacon, or received a dispensation.

Unlike adolescent Confirmation, adult Confirmation formation attempts to integrate more fully the richness of their life experiences by helping them to listen and reflect on how God has faithfully walked with them on their life’s journey. For some adults, this might be at age 20, for others, it might be at age 60.
