Recordings of 2020 Confirmation Masses
Overview-
The Journey leads teens right up to the Holy Sacrament of Confirmation. Our final year is different from all previous formation classes in that it is aimed at helping teens integrate all of their learning from the Journey’s two previous years into their daily life with their peers. Guest speakers and small group discussions are vital components on our Year Three program. CORE teen mentors and adult volunteers lead small group discussions and themes of weekly speakers and discussions are mandated by the sacramental prep program from the Archdiocese of Atlanta.
For 2020-2021, we moved our program online!
- Students will have both awesome virtual catechist-led lessons and independent online lessons!

Service Hour Log for the Journey to Confirmation
- Log a minimum of 10 service hours (beginning summer prior to 10th grade). At least 5 hours MUST be St. Benedict events; no more than 5 hours can be earned at a single event-ex. VBS week=5 service hours earned.
- Link to submit Service Hour Log Sheet – 10th grade
At St. Benedict, we believe that Confirmation formation should include fellowship along with the topics required. Therefore, our students who attend Catholic Private schools are required to attend Sunday night class a minimum of 8 times during the year. Teens may choose which 8 nights they want to attend.
In addition to all of the 10th grade assignments, Catholic Private School students need to submit the Sponsor Verification Form and their Saint Report, which were completed by the other students in 9th grade. See Confirmation Checklist-10th grade (Catholic Private School) for details.
- Who can be a Sponsor for Confirmation
