Confirmation perfects Baptismal grace; it is the sacrament which gives the Holy Spirit in order to root us more deeply in the divine filiation, incorporate us more firmly into Christ, strengthen our bond with the Church, associate us more closely with her mission, and help us bear witness to the Christian faith in words accompanied by deeds. (#1316) Confirmation takes place in the spring of 8th grade. All home-schooled, public and parochial school students who are of age and desire to be confirmed should enroll in Faith Formation (CCD) with our partners at South Hill Catholic Academy (412)631-3131 or click

For adults, confirmation takes place as part of the Order of Christian Initiation for Adults (OCIA) and interested candidates should connect with the Parish Office to inquire (412) 531-5964 or click
