The Sacrament of Confirmation, one of the Sacraments of Initiation, is usually conferred in the spring of the 8th grade for those individuals who are either studying at Immaculate Conception School or participating in our Parish Religious Education Program (PREP). It can also be received by adults who go through our RCIA program.
