 Confirmation
​
Confirmation is a Sacrament of Initiation that completes the grace we received in Baptism. It seals, or confirms, this grace through the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit. This sacrament also makes us better able to participate in the worship and apostolic life of the Church.  Learn more about the Sacrament of Confirmation.

At St. Gabriel, young people who are in the ninth grade or older  and who have received the sacraments of Baptism and Eucharist, are invited to participate in the process in the fall of each year.  

Preparation for the 2022/23 year will be held in person and involves catechesis and instruction in faith led by a team of dedicated parishioners. It is augmented by speakers and an annual retreat.  All sessions are held on Sunday evenings beginning at 6 PM.  Attendance at the 5 PM Sunday Mass is encouraged.  We begin in September.  Confirmation will be celebrated in late winter or early spring.   It is our intention to provide in-person classes, however, we will transition to online learning should we be required by Covid guidelines and restrictions. 

Confirmation at St. Gabriel takes place in the 9th grade.  If you wish to register for the Confirmation program for 2022/23 and you are in the 9th grade, please contact Karen Jubeck, 440-352-8282 or kjubeck@st-gabriel.org      

A parish service project is required for Confirmation.

ADULT CONFIRMATION SESSIONS
​

​Have you been baptized and received your First Holy Communion but have not been confirmed?  St. Gabriel is collaborating with St. John Vianney Parish in offering Adult Confirmation sessions. Anyone from St. Gabriel seeking to be confirmed should attend Adult Confirmation sessions at St. John Vianney Parish.  Those five sessions are on Sunday afternoons October 23 through November 20 from 1:30-2:30pm.  There is no cost to attend, but you must register in advance on St. John Vianney's website:  www.sjvmentor.org or by calling 440-255-0600.
