Confirmation
Confirmation provides an opportunity to affirm the vows made on our behalf at Baptism. It is an episcopal office and generally takes place either when the Area Bishop visits St. Mary’s or at diocesan Confirmation services at St. James Cathedral in downtown Toronto.
The rites of Reaffirmation and Reception are also sometimes celebrated at Confirmation services. Reaffirmation is opportunity for those wishing to reaffirm their baptismal vows, if they have already been confirmed. Reception can be a significant step for those coming into the Anglican Communion from other Christian denominations, including the Roman Catholic Church.
Confirmation preparation is required and offered periodically by our clergy for adults and youth over 12 years old.
Please contact the Rector or church office for more information.
