e than one candidate
If you have more than one candidate for Confirmation, you should register them together. When you reach the question How many Candidates are you registering for Confirmation?, you may choose the number you are registering.
Volunteering
As you register, please consider how our Confirmation program may be enriched by you and your gifts. The quality of the journey is enhanced by our parents and adult volunteers sharing their time and gifts in various ways. Some examples of sharing gifts include volunteering as a small group leader, or helping with administration, technical, communications, or hospitality areas--or maybe you have other gifts to share?
Confirmation Fee
The Confirmation fee is $180 per student. Financial assistance is available upon request. We do not wish for financial concerns to prevent any student from participating.
We are accepting credit card, cash or check. For credit card, payment can be made at the end of the online registration in Cognito via PayPal. For cash, please go to the receptionist desk in the office of the church where you may receive a receipt. For checks, please make payable to "Holy Family Catholic Church" with "Confirmation" on the memo line. Checks may be brought to Holy Family in the office, dropped off in our drop box outside the front entrance, or may be mailed to Holy Family Catholic Church, Attn: Youth Ministry, 826 W Central Ave, Davidsonville, MD 21035.
Questions
Many other details of the Confirmation program will be taken up in later emails, flocknotes and the Parents’ Night, but you may address more immediate Confirmation questions to Mr. Freiland at youthministry@hfccmail.org.
We pray that this year may be a year of grace and blessing for our many Confirmation Candidates and their families.
