OTHER PARISH SACRAMENTAL CELEBRATIONS
CONFIRMATION (Youth) Bishop Patrick McGrath has granted permission for our parish to modify the ages (14 - 18) when the Sacrament of Confirmation can be conferred upon the youth of our parish. Destination Confirmation is St. Martin of Tours' self-paced Confirmation preparation process. It's a holistic and representative view of the Universal Church where students live their faith while preparing for the Sacrament of Confirmation. For more information, you can call the Catechetical Office at 289-9608 or email Liz Schoenwetter, the parish Director of Catechetical Ministry. (For Adult Confirmation, see below) |
BAPTISM (infants) Baptism of infants and children under the age of seven is celebrated twice a month at our church at our regularly scheduled weekend Masses. Parents are required to attend a preparation session before the baptism of their child. For more information, contact the Catechetical Ministry Office at 289-9617 or email them at catecheticalministry@stmartin.org BAPTISM of ADULTS and CHILDREN over the age of 7 is coordinated through the R.C.I.A. Unbaptised adults and children who complete this process will celebrate the three sacraments of initiation at the Easter Vigil: Baptism, Confirmation and Eucharist. We warmly welcome all those inquiring about becoming Catholic. For more information, please contact Joy Aspenall in the Catechetical Office listed above. |
CONFIRMATION (Adults) This process is for those over 18 years old, no longer in High School, who have been baptized and received Eucharist. There are 6 sessions, and Confirmation is held at the Cathedral on Pentecost Sunday. Contact Joy Aspenall in the Catechetical Office at 289-9608. |
