The Celebration of Confirmation

 Confirmation is one of the Sacraments of Initiation. 
Together with Baptism and Eucharist, Confirmation celebrates a person’s new life in Christ and strengthens his or her bond with the Church.  Each sacraments is unique and carries with it special graces that enable the recipient to live a holy life.  The Church strongly encourages all its members to be Confirmed. 

At OLS, the Sacrament of Confirmation is normally received in the fall of the ninth grade year after
successful completion of our sacrament preparation program.  This program is designed to lead the
Candidate to an ownership of the faith and active ministry in the Catholic Church.

Confirmation dates are set by the bishop’s office of the Archdiocese of Detroit.  Rehearsal of the event will be scheduled and each Candidate will be assigned a Confirmation date upon announcement from the bishop’s office.
