Please Choose one of the Sacraments :
I.- The Sacraments of Initiation :
Confirmation | Information |
 |
“By the sacrament of Confirmation, the baptized are more perfectly bound to the Church and are enriched with a special strength of the Holy Spirit. Hence they are, as true witnesses of Christ, more strictly obliged to spread and defend the faith by word and deed (CCC 1285).”
Preparation for confirmation for teenagers is a two-year process that takes place beginning in 8th grade as a part of the parish RE program. The program meets on Sunday mornings at 11:30 during the normal academic year. The program follows the guidelines of the Diocese of Little Rock to prepare the teenagers to be true witnesses of Christ. For more information about Confirmation please call the Parish Religious Education Director, Carolyn Wethington at 501-625-6144.
For adults the preparation for confirmation takes place as part of the RCIA program. More information can be found with the link to RCIA on this website or the parish office.
