Confirmation deepens our baptismal life that calls us to be missionary witnesses of Jesus Christ in our families, neighborhoods, society, and the world. . . . We receive the message of faith in a deeper and more intensive manner with great emphasis given to the person of Jesus Christ, who asked the Father to give the Holy Spirit to the Church for building up the community in loving service.

In the Sacrament of Confirmation, the baptized person is"sealed with the gift of the Holy Spirit" and is strengthened for service to the Body of Christ.

St. John Vianney requires registration every spring for all Faith Formation classes including all sacraments. Families must be registered with the parish at least one year prior to Faith Formation Registration to register for classes to receive sacraments.  If you have questions, please call our Faith Formation Coordinator, Cari Goslow at
