Mine are days that God has numbered
I was made to walk with Him
Yet I look for worldly treasure
And forsake the King of kings
But mine is hope in my Redeemer
Though I fall, His love is sure
For Christ has paid for every failing
I am His forevermore

Mine are tears in times of sorrow
Darkness not yet understood
Through the valley I must travel
Where I see no earthly good
But mine is peace that flows from heaven
And the strength in times of need
I know my pain will not be wasted
Christ completes his work in me

Mine are days here as a stranger
Pilgrim on a narrow way
One with Christ I will encounter
Harm and hatred for His name
But mine is armour for this battle
Strong enough to last the war
And He has said He will deliver
Safely to the golden shore
(Continue on Back)

And mine are keys to Zion city
Where beside the King I walk
For there my heart has found its treasure
Christ is mine forevermore

Come rejoice now, O my soul
For His love is my reward
Fear is gone and hope is sure
Christ is mine forevermore

Come rejoice now, O my soul
For His love is my reward
Fear is gone and hope is sure
Christ is mine forevermore

Come rejoice now, O my soul
For His love is my reward
Fear is gone and hope is sure
Christ is mine forevermore

And mine are keys to Zion city
Where beside the King I walk
For there my heart has found its treasure
Christ is mine forevermore
Christ is mine forevermore
Christ is mine forevermore

Welcome! The Confirmation team and I are looking forward to sharing this journey of faith with you and your family. We are very excited that you have chosen to receive this sacrament.  We are all praying for you and we all hope this year will be a time of great spiritual growth.

This year will look a bit different from those in the past, but we are still excited to learn, share, serve and grow spiritually with you (and have some fun, too).

During this journey, you will be given the opportunity to learn more about your Catholic faith and what it means to be a disciple of Jesus Christ.

According to the Catechism of the Catholic Church: “Preparing for Confirmation should lead the Christian (you) toward a more intimate union with Christ and the Holy Spirit.”  So get ready for a wonderful journey. 

If you ever have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to me or any of the catechist.
