Confirmation & Registration

Rite of Confirmation High School
​(two-year program)
To Register Online please click Religious Education Signup Confirmation.

The mission of the Immaculate Conception Parish religious education program is “to go and make disciples of all nations, using the tools of prayer, study, generosity and evangelization.” Our Confirmation Preparation program aims to help every member of the family thrive in these four areas of faith.
Below we provide an overview of our High School Confirmation program (teens who have completed the twelfth grade please contact the Religious Education Office for further information). Please carefully review and complete the registration form(s) to enroll your Teen(s). 
Our Confirmation Program consists of in person catechesis for 2 years. Both years meet for 14 sessions.
​
Both programs consist of:
  • Attending every session from 3:00pm-6:00pm, at the Parish Building located at 119 Washington Court (unless otherwise announced). Every session is tailored and therefore cannot be made up. If your teen must miss a session for a serious reason, like illness, please contact the Religious Education Office at religious.education@icmarlboro.org or call 508-481-7535 and leave a message. Please assist your teen in structuring her/his extracurricular activities and part-time job schedules so that there is no conflict with their religious education commitments.
  • On the date of each session all teens will attend the 5:00pm Mass with their Confirmation Class.
  • Teens will participate in the worship and service life of the Parish by attending Weekly Mass on Sunday at 5:00pm.
  • Attend a one or two-day retreat (date to be announced).
  • Attend the Sacrament of Confession at least once during the year.
In addition, Year 2 students will:
  • Submit a Confirmation Sponsor eligibility form by November 26.

  • Create a Poster of a Saint - due February 25
  • Complete 20 hours of Charitable Work (Community Service) – due April 2

  • Attend a 15-minute consultation with the Confirmation Director and Priest for final consultation (dates to be announced)
  • Attend the Confirmation Rehearsal and Sacrament of Confession (dates to be announced) as well as participate in the Sacramental Mass.
