Confirmation recognizes the power of the Spirit in the life of a Christian, seeking to help us enter more fully into a living unity with the Spirit. We are reminded that the Spirit works in different ways at different times, and that all our human activities continually depend upon the activity of the Spirit in our lives. We celebrate Confirmation with the RCIA participants at Easter time. The eighth graders begin their studies in the Fall, and we celebrate Confirmation with them in the Spring.

The center of our Parish life is the celebration of the Eucharist: on Saturdays at 5:30 pm, on Sundays at 9:00 am and 12:00 noon. On weekdays: Communion Service on Monday and Wednesday at 8:30 am; Mass on Tuesday, Thursday and Friday (except First Friday) at 8:30 am. On First Friday Mass is celebrated in the Chapel at Wesley Manor Retirement Home at 10:00 am. First Eucharist is celebrated with second graders in the Spring.

Holy Matrimony celebrates a lifelong commitment of love and fidelity between a man and a woman. The model for this union is Christ's love for His Church. Couples planning to be married should inform Father Dale at least six months in advance. He will be glad to meet with you and help you enroll in the Archdiocesan preparation programs necessary to help you prepare for this important vocational decision.

Reconcilation is celebrated by appointment with Father, and also at Communal Penance Services during the year. (Please watch the bulletin for the dates and times.) Through this Sacrament we are forgiven and reconciled with God and with the community of faith. Second graders make their First Penance during the Fall. They study for the Sacrament through the Religious Education classes.
