Confirmation

Baptism, the Eucharist, and the sacrament of Confirmation together constitute the “sacraments of Christian initiation, whose unity must be safeguarded. It must be explained to the faithful that the reception of the sacrament of Confirmation is necessary for the completion of baptismal grace.

The Sacrament of Confirmation for our youth is usually celebrated in the spring. Confirmation for Adults is also available. Please contact the Religious Education Office at 302-644-7413 for more information. 

If you were asked to be a sponsor for Confirmation, please print off the Confirmation Form, complete and return it to the Parish Office for signature and parish seal.  The Church also requires that a Godparent for Baptism and a Sponsor for Confirmation be an active Confirmed Catholic. An active Catholic is a parishioner who is registered, attends Mass weekly, is in a valid Catholic marriage, and publicly leads a life compatible with Church teaching.
