Confirmation


Picture
Confirmation is the second Sacrament of Initiation.  Confirmation completes what took place at Baptism.  The child (or adult) is now confirmed in the fullness of the Holy Spirit. The sacrament is normally administered by the Bishop.
 
In the Cathedral Parish
  • ​Young people normally make their Confirmation in the year they turn 9 years old, or Year 3 at school.  This is preceded by preparation sessions for parents and children.
  • Confirmation for children is usually celebrated annually at a date and time determined by the availability of the Bishop.
  • If parents believe their child is eligible to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation, they are encouraged to contact the Cathedral office.

Contact the Cathedral Office for further information and bookings.
