Confirmation Dates: April 21, 2023 at 7:00 pm Reverend Father James M. Anguiano presiding
Tickets:
Holy Family Church can hold about 500 people. With about 100 plus candidates (teens and adults to be confirmed), 100 sponsors, two guests per candidate (200), and necessary liturgical ministers, that makes over 400 people in the Church already. To ensure 2 guest spaces per candidate, we issue 2 tickets to enter the Church per family and no more. We open the additional spaces to guests on a first-come, first-served basis about 15 minutes before Mass begins. The parish hall will be available to watch the livestream of the Mass simultaneously for any additional family members and guests on campus: https://livestream.com/holyfamily/live
Rehearsal: Tuesday prior to Confirmation at 7:15 pm at the Church. (90 minutes – Sponsor and Candidate)
