The Confirmation program here at St. Joe's is a 1 year
program with a Confirmation Retreat at the end of the year. We Confirm students
in the 8th grade. If you are in 9th - 12th grade and are not in a
Confirmation preparation program or have not made your Confirmation yet,
now is the time to sign up for the
St. Joseph Confirmation program.
The Confirmation preparation program here at St. Joe's takes
the place of the regular Youth Ministry program and will meet on Wednesday
evenings to learn about what the Sacrament of Confirmation is and what it
calls us to be. The official schedule will be available on the left.
Confirmation Preparation
Policies
- Candidates are
required to actively participate in all Confirmation Preparation
sessions.
- Students will be permitted
three (3) unexcused absences. After the third unexcused absence, the
parent and student will have to meet with the Pastor (Fr. Dave) prior
to returning to class and being once again eligible to receive the
Sacrament of Confirmation with the class.
- Due to the
importance of attending every session, if the Candidate is unable to
attend a session, notification to the Parish Office, either by phone
(517) 265-8938 or by email office@stjosephadrian.com
is required prior to the absence.
- Any student who
misses more that 50% of the Confirmation Program class sessions, in
any combination of excused or unexcused absences will not be eligible
to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation that year and will have to
take the classes over the following year.
- Class sessions can
be made up either through written documentation from the parent or
guardian that the material was covered at home or through written
documentation of an equal amount of community service time. Class
materials will be made available in the Youth Ministry Office for the
parent and student to go over together upon request.
- As always, we need
to have a copy of the Diocesan Health History & Medical Release
Form on file prior to participation in any program.
If you have any questions or concerns about our Confirmation
Preparation Program here at St. Joe's, please feel free to contact the
Parish Office by calling (517) 265-8938 or by e-mail at office@stjosephadrian.com.
