Adult Confirmation

"I will pray to the Father, and He shall give you another Comforter…” –John 14:16

The St. Therese Adult Confirmation Program is for baptized Adult Catholics who received their First Holy Communion but who, for whatever reason, did not receive the Sacrament of Confirmation (normally administered in the Archdiocese of Los Angeles when a person is in high school).

Classes are held on a weekly basis beginning in the Fall.  Then, sometime after Easter, the Adult Confirmation students ("Confirmandees") from St. Therese Church are confirmed, along with Confirmandees from other parishes, at a Region-wide Mass.
