CONFIRMATION 2022

It has come to that time of the year when Candidates enrol for Confirmation.  Enrolment forms are available at the back of church.  Fr. Simon and I appreciate that it has been an unusual time, due to the pandemic and as such there will be 2 groups for Confirmation; those currently in Year 6 and those who should have made Confirmation last year, and are now in Year 7.  The cut off date is in 5 weeks time SUNDAY 28th NOVEMBER 2021.  We cannot stress enough that the forms must be in the Presbytery by that date.  Any Candidate who comes in after that date will have to go on next year’s course.

The course will be 6 sessions of roughly 1 hour and 15 minutes, held in St. Robert’s Centre at 7.15pm starting Wednesdays 5th January 2022,  12th January, 19th January, 26th January, 2nd February and 9th February .  We hope that Bishop Marcus will be able to join us for the Confirmation sometime towards the end of February, date to be confirmed.  Many thanks, Fr. Elliott
