Adult Catholics (beyond High School) who have been baptized in the Catholic Church AND received the sacrament of First Communion, who are seeking to receive the sacrament of Confirmation must be prepared at their parish to receive the sacrament. The Bishop of Austin, Bishop Joe Vasquez, confirms Catholic adults twice per year, at a special Confirmation Mass on a Saturday morning in the Fall and in the Spring at a Catholic Church in the Austin diocese.
Confirmation preparation at St. Albert the Great begins 6 to 8 weeks before the Confirmation date. You must attend Mass regularly at St. Albert the Great, and preferably be a registered member of the parish, to prepare for Confirmation at St. Albert the Great.
Contact Deacon David Ochoa (deacondavidochoa@saintalbert.org) by email for more information and to register for the next Adult Confirmation Preparation.
Those being Confirmed must have a valid Baptismal Certificate with Notations showing that First Communion was received, or provide a First Communion certificate. Contact the Catholic Church where you were baptized to obtain your Baptism Certificate.
