Expectations for Confirmation Candidates 9-10 grade
Confirmation candidates are expected to be at all classes and the NET retreat (November 16, 2016). We stress that the candidates take responsibility and show initiative for being present, participating in class and also, that parents support this by keeping faith formation a high priority in the family.
Remember, through the sacrament of confirmation one receives a special strengthening through the gift of the Holy Spirit and is more perfectly bound to the Church. Through this strengthening, one is more able and ready to live out and spread the Faith.

The National Evangelization Team (NET) Retreat is mandatory for all students in Grades 7-10. This year’s theme is “Strength and Beauty,” and focuses on our unique call as God’s Sons and Daughters. Since young males and females have different struggles and needs, a portion of this retreat is divided, tailoring specific talks for each gender. A trained group of young people from across the country who are members of NET will facilitate this retreat.
