The normal age for the reception of the Sacrament of Confirmation at Most Pure Heart of Mary is during the 8th grade year of school. All 8th graders need to be enrolled in either Most Pure Heart of Mary School or Religious Education Program and must have a baptism certificate on file with either MPHM School or

Christian Formation Offices. Preparation Sessions for those involved with Confirmation are as follows:

• One Parent/Candidate Session in September of the 8th grade year
• One Candidate/Sponsor Retreat
• One Parent Session

Anyone who contacts us after October of the 8th grade year or later will need to attend the RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults).

If you are seeking the Sacrament of Confirmation for yourself or your child please contact Marie in the MPHM Christian Formation Office at 785-272-4727 for more information.
