If you are in year 10 from September 2025 (and turning 15 by 31 August 2026), and you live in the parish, then you are eligible to apply to join our confirmation preparation programme this coming academic year.

If you are not from the parish, you will need to apply to make your confirmation at your local church.

The Sacrament of Confirmation offers a fresh outpouring of the Holy Spirit on those who seek to go deeper in their faith. The preparation programme helps candidates to come to a place of readiness to make their own “yes” to being a practising catholic. It requires some maturity and a willing to be open to learn and grow in faith during the academic year ahead.

Anyone who would like to apply should write an email to: bstortfordcatechist@rcdow.org and ask for more details.

We will then let you know when you can pick up an application form.

In the email please write a few lines outlining a bit about yourself and why you feel this is the right time to make your confirmation

All applications will need to be completed by Monday 8 September 2025 and no later.
