By the sacrament of Confirmation, the baptized are more perfectly bound to the Church and are enriched with a special strength of the Holy Spirit. Confirmation is celebrated every other year at Resurrection for all 6th & 7th grade students, as well as any middle or high school aged students not yet confirmed. Students in the 6th grade who attend our parish school are prepared for the Sacrament in their religion classes. Students in 6th grade who attend other schools, or who are home schooled, are prepared for the Sacrament while attending our Parish School of Religion (PSR) on Sunday mornings during the school year. Those older than grade 6 who have received their First Holy Communion, are practicing Catholics, and wish to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation should contact the Parish Office.

Pope St. John Paul II commissioned each of us with the obligation to promote vocations to the priesthood and the religious life within our families and within our parish and to pray for the perseverance of those who have accepted God’s call. Opportunities you may choose to join in: Become a member of the Vocations Committee, whose purpose is to foster and support vocations to the priesthood and religious life by planning various activities. Join the “365 Club” ― choose one day out of the year to go to Mass and, as your intention, offer it specifically for an increase of vocations from our parish. Pray a rosary once a week for vocations. Host the Traveling Shrine to pray for an increase in vocations. Sign up to host this beautiful shrine in your home for one week at a time. Those who sign up for this important ministry should obtain a Quarterly Schedule and watch the bulletin for your assignment. Frequently pray a “Prayer for Vocations.” Beth Ryland: 316-744-2776
