OUR LADY OF THE LAKE CATHOLIC CHURCH CONFIRMATION MINISTRY
OUr lady of the lake confirmation program
|
Our Lady of the Lake Confirmation Program is a two year process. Beginning in 8th grade the confirmands are taught from the "Decision Point" produced by Matthew Kelly. Mr. Kelly is a well known, world wide Catholic speaker. He uses a combination of very entertaining videos, corresponding lessons, and small group discussion. The 9th grade year is the final year of preparation for the Sacrament of Confirmation. Our program is "Chosen" from Ascension Press. "Chosen" combines videos, lessons and thought provoking discussions. A number of nationally known Catholic Youth Ministers and priests entertain as they prepare our confirmands for this very important Sacrament.
We catechists also teach lessons that the Diocese of Charleston requires the students to know before the Bishop confirms them. Intermittent quizzes will be given to prepare for the final exam in April. All lesson handouts and study guiides will be posted on our website.

The Diocesan Youth Conference (DYC) in White Oak Conference Center near Winnsboro, SC is the chance for our youth to hear nationally known youth ministers, sing new, popular music, play games, and attend Mass and Adoration. Another amazing experience for our confirmand
