For those who were raised in the Catholic faith, most received the Sacrament of Confirmation during childhood or adolescence. However, we know that life does not always go according to expectations or plans and there are many reasons that Catholics find themselves as adults without having received all the Sacraments of Initiation!

At St. Theresa Catholic Church, we desire to help anyone who is seeking out the Sacraments to prepare well, both in mind and in heart. The best path of preparation depends on the person, so we'd like to meet with you to discuss your needs and therefore your best path!

If you have (1) been Baptized and received 1st Communion as a Catholic and (2) have been seeking to live the Christian life, including weekly Mass participation for at least the past 2 years, adult Confirmation classes may be a great fit for you!  In this case, preparation for the Sacrament of Confirmation takes place in 12 sessions. However, if this description does not fit you, we would love to talk with you now about how to prepare for the Sacraments of Initiation. Please contact us!

Due to lack of interest and the early Spring 2017 Confirmation date, we will not be able to offer a preparation course this Spring. Please let us know if you are interested so that we can notify you of class dates in the future.

In order for us to prepare you for the Sacrament of Confirmation, we ask:

• That you are a registered member of St. Theresa Catholic Church or live within our boundaries.
• That you fully participate in the formation and discernment process.
• Prior to the Sacrament:
  • We will need a copy of your Baptismal certificate
  • You will need a sponsor
