Seventh Grade or First Year Students complete the DRE level seven lessons. They also review and learn the Catechism of the Heart in preparation for the second year of our parish Confirmation preparation program. However, the best preparation of all is to faithfully attend Mass each Sunday and to conscientiously live as a devout Catholic Christian each day. Jesus Christ makes a difference in how we understand the meaning and purpose of life. Jesus Christ makes a difference in how we live our lives each day. Our Confirmation program prepares our students to make a personal commitment of their lives to Jesus Christ.
Eighth Grade or Second Year Students complete the DRE level eight lessons. They also master the complete Catechism of the Heart in preparation for Confirmation. In the fall, there are two special parent-student meetings regarding the Profession of Faith, Confirmation, Names, Confirmation Sponsors, and Parish Involvement. In the winter, there is a retreat for the Confirmation students. The final parent-student meeting in the Spring prepares for the actual celebration of this sacrament. The Confirmation date is set by the diocese and will be announced as soon as it is communicated to the parish. Confirmation is usually celebrated after Easter.
Registration information coming soon for our DRE courses in seventh and eighth grade. Sacramental preparation is an integral part of our Digital Religious Education program for all of our parish students. In the second year of your sacramental studies, you will be invited to attend our special parent-student meetings.
