Dinner starts at 6 pm in the Parish Hall after the 5 pm Mass. Presentation will begin at 7 pm in the Christus Center.
Some people mistake Confirmation as a right of passage that enables them to “graduate” from Church so that they never have to come back again… It’s time to wake up class! Confirmation is all about the power of the Holy Spirit alive and at work in you, as it was in the first apostles who spread the Gospel to the ends of the earth!
This powerful talk for Confirmation candidates & sponsors, addresses the desire God has for each of us to be the modern day apostles of the Church. The world desperately needs witnesses in every place, profession, and walk of life, to show the love of Jesus Christ in action. Using stories from Scripture, the lives of the Saints, pop culture, and his own humorous yet inspiring journey of faith; Paul offers a dynamic presentation that will leave both students and parents inspired at the work of the Holy Spirit who is able to turn sinners into saints!

AUDIENCE REACTION: “You moved half of my kids in confirmation to tears… it was amazing! You’ve proven to my teens that you can still have swag and praise the big man upstairs… that loving God is not just for “Jesus freaks”, but for everyone.” Franceska Rolda | Youth Minister | Los Angeles, CA
