Confirmation

 

This is a special year in the life of your child in 6th Class as the opportunity arises for him/her to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation in 2025.  Fr Padraig will be working with the teachers and children in 6th Class in our parish schools in Athboy, Rathcairn and Rathmore, as they prepare for Confirmation.  If your child is to receive the sacrament, he/she must be baptised.

Bishop Deenihan will administer the sacrament of Confirmation in Athboy Church on Thursday for the 6th class pupils of Ballivor & Kildalkey.

At 3pm on Friday, 85 pupils attending parish schools Athboy, Rathcairn & Rathmore will be confirmed.  We congratulate the girls and boy who will be confirmed and we acknowledge their work preparing for this important moment in their faith lives.

We thank their parents and families who have supported them in faith and their teachers who have worked with the girls and boys in school.

Parking will not be available in the church grounds during both Confirmation ceremonies on Thursday & Friday.

Ceremony of Light: at 7.30pm on Wednesday for the Confirmation classes in our parish schools in Athboy Church at 7.30pm.
