Confirmation Prep Information

Dear Parents & Teens,

Here at St. Joseph we are excited to walk with you through Confirmation preparation on your journey to receiving the Gifts of the Holy Spirit. This page will provide you information on the preparation schedule and the important dates leading up to the celebration of the Sacrament of Confirmation.

The Confirmation page is divided into two different groups of candidates for the Sacrament of Confirmation: the Confirmation candidates who began in the preparation year, 2020-2021, and the candidates who are beginning in 2021-2022. The top portion of this page is for the 2020-21 class. The other class of candidates will have their information provided at the bottom of the page.

The requiste documents for Confirmation preparation are located on the righthand section of the page. We will work together with you to update you on any changes that may occur during the course of Confirmation prep.

Be assured of our prayers for you, your family, and all those dear to you during this important and exciting time of Confirmation preparation.

Yours in Christ,

Fr. Christopher Rubie Maggie Schurz
Associate Pastor Director of Youth Ministry
Interim Director of Faith & Family/ Coordinator of Confirmation

Updates and Due Dates After Rite of Enrollment
The following are updates and due dates for completeing the documents and events after the Rite of Enrollment.
- Confirmation Information Form and Sponsor Letter of good standing should be turned in (by email to Debby Marshall dmarshall@stjoemanchester.org, snail mail, or drop off at the parish office). Printable forms are on the righthand section of the page.
- Confirmation Saint Reflection is now due 4/15. It used to be due earlier. Guidelines posted under Documents for Confirmation Preparation.
- Our Confirmation date changed: Thursday, November 11, 2021 @ 7pm in OUR CHURCH!
- Confirmation Rehearsal will now have to be moved to Thursday, November 4^th
- We missed Impact Night #2, so that is now on October 14^th
- Confirmation Retreat/Rally will be postponed, as February is just too early to be getting together as a large group for a whole day.
- All of these changed dates are on the updated Confirmation Checklist, which I uploaded under Documents for Confirmation Preparation.
- Service is hard during covid, so don’t worry about doing super “official” stuff. Raking a neighbor’s yard, making dinner for someone in need, free babysitting, helping siblings with homework, etc. can count for service!
