Faith Formation Classes
A big thank you needs to go out to everybody who worked and attended the “Sunday School Social” last Sunday. It was a wonderful way to start off our Faith Formation classes for the year. I would like to thank all of our Catechists, Aides, Substitutes and Registrar for this year. Thank you so very much for all the time, effort and love that each of you put into these classes.
ADULT FAITH FORMATION:
On Sunday, September 12th, we will be hosting our “All Parish Adult Get Acquainted Brunch” at 9:00 a.m. in the Parish Hall. Please bring a food item for the food tables to be shared with others. This is a great way to get to know each other and meet new people. All adults are invited, please come it will be a great time for all.
No Faith Formation classes September 5th. Classes resume September 12th for both youth and adults promptly at 9:00 A.M.

Confirmation
-
Classes for the Sacrament of Confirmation to be conferred in May 2011 begin Wednesday, October 7, 2009 at 7:00 p.m.
-
Those who wish to be confirmed (hereafter referred to as Confirmandi) are to be on time with at least one parent/guardian joining them.
-
Enrollment for the Spring 2011 Confirmation class closes October 7, 2009 (the only exception being someone moving here from elsewhere who is in confirmation classes there).
-
In this archdiocese, the rule is that those to receive Confirmation should be at or near the age of 16 or older. Consequently, those to be admitted to classes must be at or near the age of 14 or older. Some age latitude is given to parents in this regard in that they best know the level of maturity of their children. Parents being the first and best teachers of their children in the ways of faith and love are to be models of mature faith for their Confirmandi-children.
-
At the first class a program will be passed out indicating all pertinent requirements and a few dates. Those to be confirmed are to attend these few functions.
