IMPORTANT INFO
In order to be Confirmed, each candidate MUST have been baptized into the Catholic Church, and received the Sacrament of Reconciliation and First Communion. If a child was baptized in another church other than Sacred Heart church or St. Joseph Church, they will be required to obtain a RECENT copy of their baptism certificate. This can be done by contacting the church of baptism and requesting a copy of the certificate. Please bring to the Parent/Confirmation Candidate meeting in August 2018. If a child is missing any of these Sacraments, please fill out the Missing Sacraments form and return to the teacher ASAP.
Service Hours: There is a requirement of 15 hours – This could be volunteering at a retirement home, school functions (school carnival) or church functions (Germanfest, Oktoberfest). I have a temporary Service Hour Form to keep track until Father hands his out at the Parent & Confirmation Candidate meeting in August of 2018. This must be signed by the parent(s) and returned to the C.C.D. teacher by January, 2019.
Also required by each student is their letter addressed to the Archbishop of "Why I wish to be Confirmed". This will be handed out at the meeting in August 2020 and due January, 2021 as well. The letter must be on this topic and not a paper on the saint they have chosen.
A report on the saint they have chosen will be done as homework.
