I am delighted to share our 2027 Confirmation Schedule.

To all the young people who will receive the Sacrament of Confirmation in the year ahead, I hope that this time of preparation will help you grow closer to Jesus and become more aware of the presence of the Holy Spirit in your life.

I echo the words of Pope Leo XIV, who recently spoke to young people preparing for Confirmation about the importance of perseverance in faith. He reminded them that “Jesus Christ wants to walk with you, with each one of you.”

Confirmation is much more than the celebration of a particular day. The Holy Spirit is given to strengthen you as you continue your journey with Christ. Pope Leo encourages young people to remain close to the life of their parish and to remember that we live our faith together.

As you prepare for Confirmation in 2027, I encourage you to carry that invitation with you: allow Christ to walk with you and continue to make a place for him in your life long after your Confirmation day.

You will be very much in my prayers and in the prayers of our parish communities during these months of preparation.
