Confirmation Changes for the Diocese of Tulsa
Preparation for Confirmation will be completed and will be held in the third grade instead of during high school. Parishes in the Diocese will begin transitioning to this over the next five years.
This change was discerned based on the work of the Diocesan Confirmation Commission which included priests, deacons, catechetical leaders, parents, and diocesan staff reflecting the various parish and school dynamics of
the diocese.
Please see the following documents for more information. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out to Carey Auschwitz.
First Communion Sacramental Preparation
Our Sacramental Preparation program is designed as a faith formation journey for the kids of our parish and St. James. Typically, students in the 2nd Grade receive their First Holy Communion.
​
For your child to receive their First Communion, he or she must be enrolled either in our CRE Faith Formation program or at St. John Catholic School.
