Bishop Serratelli has granted us permission to lower the age of receiving Confirmation starting in our 2020 -2021 school year to grade 8. Receiving Confirmation earlier will enable high school students to better participate in our parish community by serving as Lectors, Eucharistic Ministers, and Youth ministry to name a few. As next school year will be the transition year, provisions will be made to have grades 8, 9 and 10 also confirmed here at St. Francis de Sales. We trust this change will greatly benefit the young people of our parish.
