At St. Mary of the Assumption, we believe that financial strain or hardship should never stand in the way of your child receiving religious education. Therefore, we've created our Free-Tuition Mission! Our Faith Formation and Sacramental Prep programs for our children are tuition-free! For us to keep this Mission a reality, we are asking for freewill offerings from our families and our entire parish to offset the costs of program materials. Feel called to donate to our free-tuition mission? Tap here for further details!
"Like Baptism which it completes, Confirmation imprints on the soul an indelible spiritual mark, the "character," which is the sign that Jesus Christ has marked a Christian with the seal of his Spirit by clothing him with power from on high so that he may be his witness." (CCC 1304)
Parishes in the Archdiocese of Baltimore have adopted a universal norm, setting age 9 (typically 4th grade) as the standard earliest age for receiving the Sacrament of Confirmation.
