Community Service Expectations
for those preparing to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation
for those preparing to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation
To deepen the bonds of community within our Parish and specifically among the Confirmation candidates, it is our tradition that ALL CONFIRMATION CANDIDATES have a shared Mission Service experience that we organize/coordinate.
For 2018-2019, ALL CONFIRMATION CANDIDATES will be participating in our PARISH MORNING OF SERVICE on Saturday, November 3, 2018. There are a variety of opportunities to choose from on this day. We highly encourage Confirmation Candidates to select an off-site project, which will require and adult to attend with the candidate. Families are encouraged to volunteer together! Confirmation candidates are responsible to select from the offered projects and be sure to SIGN UP. All sign-ups will be done online and begin on September 9th.
Ministry Service will be selected individually by each candidate, but must directly benefit our Parish Community by volunteering with an existing Parish Ministry Group. A list of suggestions will be distributed in September at our informational session. If you need suggestions, please reach out to our office and we will match you with a ministry group that fits with your strengths and interests. It is our hope, that this interaction will lead to continued Ministry involvement post-Confirmation.
Candidates are asked to prayerfully reflect on their service experiences and complete one service report (which can be printed to the left) for your Mission Service and one for your Ministry Service. It is recommended that you complete and turn in your service reports as soon as possible after completing the service opportunity, The absolute deadline for submission of service reports is April 15th.
