The Confirmation Program at St. John Vianney Catholic Church seeks to prepare teens for a life-long relationship with Jesus Christ and the Catholic Church.

• Students who are at least in 10th grade the year they seek sacramental preparation
• Students who have fully participated in two consecutive years of Faith Formation prior to sacramental prep.
• Students with the desire to receive Confirmation
• Students with at least 24 service hours 

• Regulary participation in Sunday Mass and Holy Days of Obligation
• Participation in a Confirmation Retreat
• Participation at all Sunday Classes (minimum of 20 classes, with make-up classes)

High school students that have received the Sacrament of Confirmation are invited to join our DOC Leadership Program. DOCs meet to grow in intentional discipleship, deepen their friendships, and plan for upcoming events such as retreats. DOCs are expected to attend Alive nights and act as role models for the underclassmen and middle school students. They can assist as confirmation team leads.
