01.01.2022 Congratulations to our students and their families who participated in very special Confirmations this weekend. Confirmation, a sacrament of initiation, establishes young adults as full-fledged members of the faith. This sacrament is called Confirmation because the faith given in Baptism is now confirmed and made strong.
