The students who completed the 7th grade CCD class in the Spring will be confirmed on October 3rd at 4:30 at St. Columbkill Church by Bishop Schlert.
Confirmation retreat is Saturday, Sept 30, 8-noon at Holy Guardian Angels School, Reading.
Confirmation rehearsal is Sunday, October 1 at 2pm at St. Columbkill Church, Boyertown.
The Bishop celebrates confirmation in the fall of each year with our Eighth Grade students. A year of preparation (their Seventh Grade) precedes the reception of the Sacrament.
Also, Confirmation is celebrated as part of our Easter Vigil Mass for all who prepared through the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA). These folks have prepared for at least six months in this process to be received into the Church and to conclude or receive the Sacraments of Initiation.
