Confirmation

Confirmation in the Diocese of Harrisburg is administered to candidates at least 13 years of age. In recent years, Confirmation has been conferred in the spring. A course of instruction is required prior to this, which takes place as part of the parish CCD program, which meets at the church on Sundays from 9:15 am to 10:15 am during the academic year.

Confirmation sponsors who are not members of the parish will need letters of good standing from their respective pastors. Confirmation sponsors must satisfy the requirements for a Confirmation sponsor stipulated by the Catholic Church, which are the same as those for baptism (per canon 893).
