Confirmation

St. Michael's Confirmation Update (as of April 20, 2020)

As almost all other facets of our lives, our Confirmation preparation has been greatly impacted by the current pandemic, and the measures being taken to try and stem it.  
Here are the most current updates:
Year 1 (9th Grade)

• All remaining classes and events (including the retreat on April 25) are canceled.
• Some groups will try to meet digitally, to check in and put a wrap on the year.  Information about these meetings will come from your small group leader.
• Candidates are asked to submit their Information Form to Ed if they have not already, including picking a sponsor.

• All remaining classes and events are canceled.
• The Confirmation Mass at The Basilica, scheduled for April 23, has been canceled by the Archdiocese.
  • The Archbishop has granted special permission to pastors to hold the Confirmation Mass in the parish, once it is reasonable to do so.
  • At this time, we expect that will not take place until the fall.  Father Little & Ed will communicate with families immediately as soon as we have any new information and are able to plan for a Mass.
• Candidates are asked to continue to select their Confirmation Name, and submit it to Ed here.  
• Candidates are asked to write their "Faith Story" assignment, and submit it to Ed either via email, or by sharing it as a Google Doc.  
  • Please click here for a description of the "Faith Story" assignment.  
• Families are asked to submit a copy of their child's baptismal certificate, if the child was not baptized at St. Michael's.  Please do so by contacting the parish where they were baptized.
• Those who have not submitted their "Information Form" yet, are asked to do so ASAP.  You can download that form here.
