Adult Confirmation

For Catholics (ages 18+) who have been baptized and have received their first Eucharist but did not receive the sacrament of Confirmation.

Confirmation is a sacrament of Christian commitment and a deepening of our baptismal gifts. It is one of the three Sacraments of initiation. Some Catholics received the first two sacraments, Baptism and Eucharist; however, for one reason or another, they did not receive the Sacrament of Confirmation. Adult Confirmation prepares Catholics seeking to complete their initiation through a series of sessions centered on fostering a deeper relationship with Jesus and the Church he founded.

Please contact Rita Schillin at (916) 872-4700 or by e-mail at [email protected] if you are interested in receiving your Confirmation.
