Confirmation
Corpus Christi Mobile Confirmation journey begins in the 9th grade and continues to the Sacrament of Confirmation in the 11th grade.
"When the time for Pentecost was fulfilled, they were all in one place together. And suddenly there came from the sky a noise like a strong driving wind, and it filled the entire house in which they were. And they were filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak in different tongues, as the Spirit enabled them to proclaim. (Act 2:1-4)"
" It is important that those preparing to celebrate Confirmation be properly prepared through appropriate education and formation. Knowledge of the faith needs to be taught and a deeper relationship with God needs to be fostered in the minds and hearts of all who approach this sacrament. Sacramental preparation for Confirmation should lead a Catholic into a more lively involvement in his or her parish so that through word, worship, and service, each member of the church continues to grow in the gifts of the spirit. The focus of Confirmation preparation must be m ore than readiness for the celebration of the sacrament; it must also focus upon ongoing faith life once the sacrament has been celebrated." -Archbishop Thomas J. Rodi
