Those families seeking the Sacrament of Confirmation for their children are required to undergo two years of formation, which is split up into Level 1 & Level 2. LEVEL 1
- Parents and children in Level 1 of Confirmation formation (typically Grade 7 children) will be provided with resources to have faith conversations at home using the Pathways resources from Faith and Family Life Catholic Ministries https://www.fflcm.org/pathways
They will then meet in person on selected dates throughout the year (see the table below with the 2025-2026 schedule).
- Families are required to fill out a Mass Transit Card directly after attending Mass. These cards offer a short reflection and an opportunity for families to write what they have observed at Mass.
- All requirements need to be completed before acceptance into Level 2 of Confirmation Prep formation the following year.
