Confirmation
At St. Joseph Parish, the celebration of the sacrament of Confirmation takes place sometime between mid-September and early November for those students beginning their senior year of high school. Candidates are required to have an interview and make a retreat prior to the reception of the sacrament. For more information, please contact Faith Formation Coordinator, Ben Wolf.
RCIA – Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults
RCIA is the process for adults who are not baptized, those who are baptized in a different Christian denomination and baptized Catholics who seek Confirmation and Eucharist. Preparation sessions are held Sunday morning beginning in mid to late September. Sessions give an in-depth overview of the Catholic Church and provide skills in scripture, prayer and Christian living. The process is enhanced by the companionship of an RCIA Team, sponsor, personal visits and support of a Catholic community. Catechumens and candidates are received into the church and celebrate the Easter sacraments at the Holy Saturday Easter Vigil. Contact Deacon Mark Farrell, Pastoral Associate, with questions or to register, 734-7195.
Adult Confirmation
Adult confirmation (for those who received the sacraments of Baptism and Communion) takes place in the Fall. For more information or to register for a class, please contact the parish office.
