Catholic adults who are active in the practice of their faith but who, for whatever reason, have never received the Sacrament of Confirmation are encouraged to do so. In this Archdiocese, the normal pastoral practice is to celebrate the Sacrament of Confirmation with adults at special Masses throughout the Archdiocese on two occasions: Pentecost Sunday, and early January at the Baptism of the Lord or Epiphany feasts.

Adults interested in preparing to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation should complete the attached Confirmation Information Form and return it to Leann Jerkins at [email protected] to schedule your first conversation.

I will address your questions, review the schedule of classes, and schedule your discernment interview before the classes begin.
If you have any questions about the adult Confirmation preparation program at Holy Rosary, please call Leann Jerkins at 281-342-3089 x. 141 or [email protected]
