Baptisms are celebrated in English and Spanish after the weekend Masses. Parents and Godparents should attend the preparation class in anticipation of the celebration.

Confirmation

Students in the 11th Grade prepare for the Sacrament throughout the faith formation year by attending classes, performing service hours, and through their prayer experiences and retreat. Adults who are baptized Catholic yet having not completed their initiation with this sacrament, are invited to attend R.C.I.A. sessions as preparation to receive the sacrament at the Easter Vigil.
