Confirmation
Youth Confirmation
There is a formation process that culminates with the Sacrament of Confirmation, celebrated by the Bishop of Diocese of Charleston. St. Anthony of Padua Catholic Church provides excellent catechesis which aims to strengthen and invigorate the faith life of the young Church. Religious Education classes are held every Wednesday from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. The date of Confirmation is decided by the Bishop each year.
To register your child for Confirmation, please contact Debra Drennon at DDrennon@charlestondiocese.org.

Adult Confirmation
The formation of adults and the process by which they are initiated into the Church is known as the Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults. RCIA is for the unbaptized, those baptized in another Christian church seeking to become Catholic, and Catholic adults who have not made full initiation yet. The date of Confirmation is decided by the Bishop each year.
