Are you an adult Catholic, registered and active in your parish? 
Do you participate in Mass and receive Holy Communion regularly?
Have you accepted your baptismal responsibility to know Christ better and to make him better known? 
Have you never received Confirmation, and now feel called to complete your Christian initiation with its celebration? 
We offer a weeknight formation series starting each fall to prepare adult Catholics for Confirmation.  Open to registered parishioners of St. Joseph Basilica and St. Barnabas.  

Preparation for Confirmation in 2023 takes place weekly on Thursdays (or a few Tuesdays), 7pm to 8:30pm, starting October 27.    
Register at https://forms.gle/cv7dZj8CihPFDo8x8 by October 10, 2022
Tentative schedule here.   Introduction to first session here.

If you are a member of St. Joseph Basilica but haven't officially registered at the parish, please do so here.  If you are a member of St. Barnabas but haven't officially registered, contact their parish office.
If you are Catholic but have never received First Eucharist, you are invited to join Christian Initiation of Adults now to start your preparation.
If you are married civilly (not in the Catholic Church), please contact your pastor immediately regarding convalidation of your marriage.
