One of which must be at Saint Timothy’s, the other can be completed outside the parish.

Must be completed within the Confirmation year with verification & submitted by: Wednesday, April 15 th , 2020. ****LIFE NIGHTS: Teens will need to attend 1 Life Night each year, which take place each Sunday night from 6-8pm.
