CONFIRMATION
SEALED WITH THE GIFTS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
Confirmation deepens our baptismal life that calls us to be missionary witnesses of Jesus Christ in our families, neighborhoods, society, and the world. . . . We receive the message of faith in a deeper and more intensive manner with great emphasis given to the person of Jesus Christ, who asked the Father to give the Holy Spirit to the Church for building up the community in loving service.
PREPARATION
The Diocese of Phoenix is a restored order Diocese, which means that children are eligible for receiving Confirmation (and Holy Communion) in 3rd grade. At Aquinas, we have a two-year preparation track for elementary students (open to 2nd-5th graders) and a one-year preparation track for teenagers and adults. Learn more about Restored Order here.
