8th GRADE
Welcome to the preparation for Confirmation (8th grade).
This is an important step in the life of your teen. We begin, in eighth grade, reviewing and preparing the youth to enter the Rite of Confirmation Program, to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation in high school.
Eighth Grade Program Overview: Eighth grade program begins in the fall and ends in the spring. Currently, the curriculum is “Called to be Catholic” and “Living the Mass” both by Loyola Press.
Many have been attending Faith Formation since kindergarten. We begin by reviewing (K-7) and teaching about Church History. The second part of the year, they enter “Living the Mass”.
We break open the liturgy, (great for adults too!) and take what we discussed with us into the other six days of the week. The celebration of the MASS IS THE CORNERSTONE OF THE Catholic faith.
