Attention! The age group corrected!

Are you a eighth-grader or older who has not yet received the sacrament of confirmation? Are you a parent of such a young person? Please register or enrol your youngster in the Confirmation preparatory course. You can register at the parish office (tel. 09-2411633 or maria@katolinen.fi) or with Father Martti (tel. 050-5478805).

The courses for the fall are Sat 9.9., 14.10., 11.11., and 9.12. from 15:30-17:15. The course lasts about a year. It explores in particular the gift that young people will receive in the Sacrament of Confirmation, but also the action of the Holy Spirit in people’s lives in general. The course aims to enable the young person to derive maximum spiritual benefit from the sacrament. The course also includes regular attendance at Sunday Mass and an introduction to parish activities, especially youth nights. We also plan to organise a summer camp for Confirmation youth in early June. Accompanying the confirmation course will be Father Martti Savijoki SCJ and other adult mentors.
The sacrament of Confirmation is expected to be celebrated in October 2024.
