Confirmation

Confirmation completes Baptism, by which in the laying on of hands and the anointing with Chrism Oil, which first happened at Baptism, we are confirmed with the fullness of the Holy Spirit.  We are reminded of our participation in the ministry and mission of Jesus, and strengthened to follow Jesus more closely.

Once a year St Ignatius Parish invites children who are already baptised and who are in Year 3 or above to join the Parish Sacramental Preparation Program. 

Sacrament of Confirmation takes place in Term 3 of the school year.  Preparation for this sacrament is parish based and family focussed.

If you wish to register your child for the Sacrament of Confirmation in our parish, please complete the online Confirmation registration / enrolment form (below).

Update/Important Information:  

Due to the Archdiocese of Brisbane’s move to using Flocknote, our ‘Community of Communities’ will be utilising same for the next intact of children for our Sacramental Preparation Program 2025-26, which will commence in Term 3.  With this change we will now be accepting enrolments for a 2-year programme.
