The purpose of our Confirmation Program is to enable each of our young people enrolled to grow in their relationship with God within the Catholic Church so as to properly prepare them to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation, as well as to enable each candidate to live his/her life going forward as a practicing Catholic by following the example and teaching of Jesus Christ.

Objectives in reaching this goal include providing a positive experience of the parish and connecting the candidate with the faith of Our Lady of Mount Carmel by liturgical worship (Mass and Sacraments) and ongoing service and activities, as well as catechetical instruction in the basic beliefs of the Roman Catholic Church. Preparation of our candidates to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation is accomplished through a two-year instructional program that includes a number of retreats. A tuition fee of $75.00/year is charged for each student in the Confirmation Program, along with other retreat fees, however, no candidate will be refused admission into the program due to financial hardship.
