Adult Confirmation

The Diocesan Adult Confirmation Initiative is for Catholics 18 years and older who have been Baptized but have not received the Sacrament of Confirmation. It is a process which assumes that an adult is a registered and active member of St. Francis parish who knows and practices his faith,
but did not receive his Confirmation for whatever reason at the usual age.
