Confirmation 2025

Confirmation programme 2025 for those in Year 9 and above.

 

The programme started on Sunday 30^th March and the Confirmation Mass is Saturday 13^th September 2025. 

(Applications for Confirmation 2026 will open on 1st September)

 

If you want to apply for this programme please download Confirmation Application 2025 and send it to ljross@rcdow.org.uk

as soon as possible. If you were not baptised or made your first Holy Communion in this parish we will need to see a copy of your baptism certificate.

All candidates are expected to attend the 5pm Mass, unless they have been with their family to an earlier Mass. All sessions will be for young people only until the rehearsal for the confirmation later in the programme.

 

 

Adult Confirmation

For people who are over the age of 18 and who would like to be confirmed, the RCIA course is the appropriate support.  Please contact Sacramental Co-ordinator to join the RCIA group. The RCIA process is a continuous one, so there is no limit on when you join it. 

For people above 13/14 but below 18 years of age, we believe the existing parish formation as above for the sacrament will usually be appropriate.  

Naturally there is a process of discernment as to what will suit an individual seeking adult confirmation, and we hope always to provide the most appropriate support possible.
