Destination Confirmation
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.
Fr. Chris Bransfield and Liz Schoenwetter are coordinating the Confirmation process. For more information and a schedule of sessions, events and rites, please call the Catechetical Ministry Office at 289-9608 or email Liz Schoenwetter.

World Youth Day 2008

Every year, Catholic youth from throughout the world gather for World Youth Day.
Although it is usually held in Europe, this year's event was in Australia! The Pope is always present at World Youth Day and many people from our diocese were able to attend.
For a virtual tour of this year's World Youth Day, here are some videos about the event.
