At what age do we confirm? 

At Saint Matthew, Confirmation preparation is a two year process. 

In year one (typically 7th grade), students must participate in our Family of Faith religious education program OR be enrolled in our parish school. During year one, candidates complete the first half of the Chosen Confirmation curriculum. 

In year two (typically 8th grade), students must participate in our Family of Faith religious education program OR be enrolled in our parish school. During year two, students complete the Chosen curriculum, attend several preparation sessions, complete a Confirmation portfolio, and go on a one day retreat. The Sacrament of Confirmation is conferred during the Spring of the second year.
