Sacrament of Confirmation at Queen of Peace
Confirmation is the third Sacrament of Initiation, when a baptized person is sealed with the gifts of the Holy Spirit, strengthened in their faith, and called to be come a living witness of Christ and an active member of our Catholic faith. The Sacrament of Confirmation is available at Queen of Peace through  Religious Formation Confirmation program, Order of Christian Initiation for Adults (OCIA), Order of Christian Initiation for Children (OCIC), and the newly forming Adult Confirmation Program.
​Please see below for more information about each program.
Confirmation through Religious Formation
​
Confirmation is a two year preparation program to help those seeking the sacrament to better understand what receiving this sacrament means to them. It is an extremely momentous occasion to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation in our faith, for the student and their families. Under the Religious Formation Program, those who wish to enter into classes should be in 9th-10th grades (or ages 14-17). Classes are held Wednesdays from 6:30-8:00 pm. Please register the summer before classes start, either online or in person at the parish office. The Confirmation Mass to bestow the Sacrament on the candidates is usually held during the Easter Season (April-May, official 2026 date to be determined.)  
​If you have any questions or need more information, please contact Tony Martinez at the parish office.

Confirmation through Adult Confirmation Program
This class is for adults 18 years of age and older who have yet to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation and would like to do so are encouraged to sign up for this program. This program is for those who are already Baptized in the Catholic Fatih as well as have already received their First Holy Communion.  Classes to begin January 3rd, registration is required.
​The Sacrament will be bestowed during the Easter Vigil Mass.
