CONFIRMATION AT
OUR LADY OF GOOD COUNSEL

Confirmation for Middle School
This sacrament is normally offered in the Arlington Diocese in grade 8. Preparation for this sacrament begins in grade 7 and is completed in grade 8. Immediate catechesis for this sacrament is offered in the CCF class and in the religion class in OLGC School. The preparation process also includes a retreat, 3 group service projects, 40 hours of individual service hours, and a faith sharing interview.

Confirmation for High School Students and Adults
Some high school students and adults of any age decide that they now wish to be confirmed. A 6 week course in late winter/early spring is offered for them. They are confirmed at the Cathedral on the Feast of Pentecost.
