Confirmation
The Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston requires that all Sacrament Preparation is done over a two year period. Each teen will complete their prerequisite year of preparation by faithfully attending Sunday evening Life Teen-Year One sessions or with enrollment in an accredited Catholic High School. Confirmation is a year-long formation program, held on Wednesday nights, that gives your teen the very heart and soul of the Catholic faith to prepare them to worthily receive the Sacrament of Confirmation in the Spring.
