For additional information regarding the Confirmation program, please contact the parish offices at 978.562.2552 or office@stmikes.org.

In preparation to receive a strengthening of the Holy Spirit, confirmandi (young Christians preparing to receive the sacrament of Confirmation) will participate in a two-year program of prayer, instruction, and service. The requirements for Confirmation are:

Weekly Attendance at Sunday Mass with Family

Attendance and Participation in Bi-Monthly Classes for the Two-Year Program

Participation in Service Projects Through the Parish*

Reflections on the Experience of Their Service

Attendance at Night of Reflection in April or May, Just Prior to Receiving Confirmation

Letter to the Bishop Explaining Why the Confirmand is Seeking Confirmation (for those in the second year of formation)

The omission of any of these criteria will lead to the deferral of receiving the sacrament until the following year or later.

*Please note: Service projects for Confirmation are not to be used for school or NHS.
