“Equipping students with the tools of our faith heritage, that they may continue to grow in faith in order to love and serve the Church and neighbor.” – St. Mark’s Confirmation Mission Statement
Confirmation
PROGRAM OVERVIEW:
Confirmation at St Mark’s is a three-year program, typically beginning the fall of sixth grade and concluding in the spring of the eighth-grade year, or once all requirements have been fulfilled.
It is our goal to engage our confirmands in a meaningful and engaging personal journey of faith through group discussions, activities, retreats, and special service projects. During their journey, we guide students in a manner that promotes self-discovery and the development of an ongoing faith that is centered in Jesus Christ. Upon meeting all program requirements, the students participate in the Rite of Confirmation, which includes a public profession of faith.
Confirmation classes are held every Sunday morning during the school year from 8:30 A.M. to 9:45 A.M.
