8th Level Confirmation Preparation

​Confirmation will be held on November 18th, 2017 in Mullica Hill!

Final Reminders
  • Candidates and sponsors should arrive by either 9:15am (for the 10) or 12:15pm (for the 1). Sponsors should take their seat in the chapel and candidates need to head to room 8. 
  • We have reserved 4 seats per family according to a seating chart. When families arrive, they should enter the chapel and find a helper to escort them to their seats. 
  • No pictures during Mass whatsoever. This includes the moment of anointing/confirming.
  • Please turn your cellphones off during Mass. The anointing/confirming can take quite some time, but we urge everyone to remain respectful and attentive by staying off of their phones.
  • After Mass, the newly confirmed and their sponsor will be invited to take a picture with the bishop. If parents have a particular camera they’d like me to use, they should give it to the sponsor in advance. For each pair’s turn, the sponsor will hand me the camera, I’ll take two pictures, and we’ll immediately move on to the next pair. The rest of the parish grounds are available for family photos.
