Preparing for Confirmation in the Diocese of Memphis is a two year process.

• Usually youth prepare for Confirmation during 7^th and 8^thgrades, and are confirmed during the spring of 8^th grade.
• Those in Catholic Schools participate in sacramental preparation sessions in the parish during their 8^th grade year.
• Those in Public or Private Schools attend parish religious education during 7^th and 8^th grades, in addition to the sacramental preparation sessions during their 8^th grade year.
• All Confirmation candidates participate in the Confirmation retreat and group service projects.

A few other guidelines:

• Youth preparing for Confirmation must attend Mass regularly on Sundays and Holy Days.
• Family prayer and scripture reading is an essential part of the sacramental preparation process.  Teens should know basic prayers and be reading the Bible at home with their families and on their own.
• During the year of Confirmation, parents attend sessions offered specifically for them during this process.
• Teens in Catholic Schools and those in Parish Religious Education attend the sacramental preparation sessions and retreats together.
• Catechesis is not just learning facts about the sacraments (or the church). Catechesis nurtures and deepens our relationship with God.
• Catechesis does not end with Confirmation. Catechesis is a lifelong journey!
